Clay Dolphin and Resin

I love making things with polymer clay. I started out using it years ago and have made so many things with it. There are so many uses for it, for instance jewelry, dolls and mixed media. I did a “mixed media” clay piece as I view mixed media (mixing different mediums in one project)
I love animals and I was watching a documentary on Dolphins and it inspired me for this small piece I did. I like having items sitting around that I make so when I feel lost and uninspired I can look at it and think “Hey, I did that!!!”
I built the dolphin and the pool out of clay and then filled the clay with resin after it was baked. I wanted to add a ball, and I still might, but for now I am very happy with this!
