how cute! Catherine is very artistic …
I’d read (somewhere) that there shouldn’t be any concave surfaces, so I avoided buying moulds that had any texture to them, like the flowers …

we live and learn …

are these plasterite ‘happy pills’? are they strong enough to be carried around in one’s pocket? resilient to damage, I mean …
also, I noticed a heart with silver matt paint on it …. would that silver interfere with the plasterite’s ability to broadcast, going on the earlier info re using silver leaf?

Fancy moulds help with the magic of paint.
Very nice.

The silver paint does not hurt anything, because it is not real silver it is a plastic glider, And yes one could carry one is ones pocket,,,”my precious, what does it have in his pocket…”

, but it is after all plaster and may not take a whole lot of tumbling.
As far as range, I have found that the small pyramid will have a field of affect of 15 miles, it could just be the geometry of the thing, because the other pieces do not go that far, some 9 miles, some 7 miles…, still very good
We have found that the silicone mold work the best.
Stephen, how the nine stack coming, ? :shock:

absolutely beautiful work, Josh (& Catherine) …
the colours are so vibrant! that sunflower is special ..
I’d read (somewhere) that there shouldn’t be any concave surfaces, so I avoided buying moulds that had any texture to them, like the flowers … playing ‘safe’ … but I do understand that concave is different to ‘shaped’ …
the purple one with the amethyst on top, is that from a salad bowl? it almost looks round, not half-round …
I would have thought that a crystal glued on a painted surface would come off easily, taking the paint with it … but I know very little about the nature of paint ..
this is wonderful! it’s like having a plasterite lesson!
