Der Belsnickle
Here is a Santa I created last year using an air-drying modeling compound called Delight. It was the first time I’d ever attempted sculpting a face. His oversized head, simple features and stern expression were inspired by antique Belsnickles. His vest was fashioned from a quilted wallhanging I had started years ago but never completed.

I like the santa's stern expression. I'm not into happy pretty smily faces. How's Biff? We need a biff update.
Thanks, Maryellen. And thanks for asking about Biff. He’s doing very well. He’s growing so fast. We need to set up the tripod and take a nice, formal portrait of him soon–but he doesn’t stay still unless he’s sleeping…
