Friday Face Off Join in

 Hello Everyone!

Awhile back Barbara and I were making clay faces at the same time.
I asked if she wanted to do a Face Off. She was all in. We figured 4 weeks. In that time Gene joined in and now, we are way past the 4 week mark. I have been thinking about opening it up to anyone who wants to join in. I have been getting some emails about it. 
Soooo...
Starting today Friday Face Off is officially open to anyone. There is only one rule. Your link has to feature a face. It can be in any art medium. Barbara and I are on the freaky side so freaky is good. LOL It can be a WIP or a finished pieced. It can be a new piece of art or an older one you want to show off again.
It can also be an animal face. 
So please join in I would love to see your
Face Off.
You might remember this clay face I made several months ago.
Slowly the creature got a body and finally I painted and finished it.
Click on the photos to see a close up.

I love the branches.


 

Lots of texture in the body.

 


 


 
That's it for now. I hope you tell your friends about Friday Face Off. 
 
I am also linking up with 
 
Have a great day everyone!

Very nice face and figure. I don't make any art, so I can't join you in this pleasant activity.

I think I somehow linked without posting a face. Sorry!

Barbara said...

I love the doll, Nicole! Everything about her down to her twig legs! The Mr. Linksy idea may draw me back in. I didn’t like it not working well for me before, but it may be better now. I’ll try it later. I’m late this week because of some medical issues taking my time. Hopefully things are resolving and I’ll be back with enthusiasm soon! My face for this week is drying, just needs some finishing touches, then I will visit Mr. Linksy. I predict this will really take off!

Debra said...

Well done! Although creepy isn't my taste too much, I appreciate your skill. I think the twig legs are genius.

Iris Flavia said...

Love that the face got a body, very cool, yes, Twiggy comes to mind! :-)

Best of luck with Friday Faces. I will join in when my post a face.

Thanks for dropping by my blog today.
I experienced a cut for updates during my posting. So the linky did not appear, i thought it did. Well now, i edited and it is there now.

Have a creative weekend

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

Wow! I love how you have opened this up. I'm playing catch up right now, so will try to think of something for next Friday. Love how this has turned out.

BTW, I don't understand why Gene can't/won't leave me a message just because I'm a no reply blogger. Why should that affect anything?

DVArtist said...

Elizabeth, I don't know either. I am a not reply also. I would write to him. He is really a very nice man.

Serena Lewis said...

OH, this sounds like fun. I hope to join in on Friday. :)

I like the texture you managed in the body. Nice work!
