Do you sell your work? Is it possible to reproduce something similar to this? I am in love. I volunteer at the Seattle Aquarium, and I am quite simply in love.

It's one of a kind. It's hand sculpted out of precious metal clay and fired with a hand torch to burn out the binder and fuse the silver particles. Then it is enamel painted. I'm not doing silverclay work anymore. It's gotten rather expensive with the price of silver being so high these days. Also the silverclay is very brittle compared to cast silver.

I really like the concept of this piece, it reminds me of selkie stories. The enamel really brings out the sea lion and draws attention to the contrast between the animal and its miniature environment. It's quite beautiful. ;)
