Mustelidae


Weasels and allies:

Badgers, Otters, Martens, Mink, Wolverines




The following group of sculptures were created in "Form Development in Clay," a class where we had to choose a "form" to work from.  I chose the family Mustelidae; long bodies, short legs, and a variety of personalities.  The photos were taken on two small sets I created from plastercloth and a variety of Woodland Scenics products.
