Finished memento Mori Boys


Jackson on the Left and Thomas on the Right. Finished :D well a couple days ago but I could not get Blogger to upload the pics..But I ended up making the little buttons and I am so happy I did. They (buttons) are painted with mica brass pigment and yellow acrylic. Buying a set of Mica pigments about 4 years ago turned out to be a great choice. Not sure at the time what I would do with them; I end up using them for everything from art dolls and paintings to Halloween costumes and jewelry. Jackson and Thomas are already sold. I am thinking about making a set of girls.. maybe later this year.

Memento Mori Boys 2

Poor sad boys not sure what caused their demise yet. But they are almost done. I want to add some brass buttons to the older brothers jacket and maybe the little boys pants. I guess I will have to make them out of clay and paint them. Probably the spats too. I am not sure if young boys wore spats? But I thought they were too cute :D One of my kids said the little one looks like he needs a pacifier. lol Creepy but good
