Come Explore Noadi's Art Original Fantasy Sculpture
Noadi's Art is my little world of fantasy art. Mainly I'm a sculptor though I do dabble in other mediums. Fantasy gives me such a range of subjects to explore so I've sculpted everything from fairies to gods to octopuppies in jars. While the main material in my sculptures is polymer clay I define my work as mixed media, if a material catches my eye I'll find a way to use it. I hope you like my work and by all means let me know whatever your opinion is.
About Noadi's Art
I'm a 27-year-old artist from the mountains of western Maine. I've been interested in fantasy since the first fairy tales I ever read as a kid. Being a fantasy artist gives me the freedom to explore anything and everything that interests me since there are no real rules or limitations to the genre.More About the Artist

A few of my sculptures.
Click the pictures to go to the larger versions on my website.
Squid - I love cephalopods.
*****
Hatching Turtle - Baby turtle hatching out of his shell. Sculpted from super sculpey and painted in acrylics, he's 2 inches long.
*****
Octopuppy - Baby octopus in a jar. This cutey is super sculpey as is the lid of his jar, painted in acrylics, real rocks and shell inside thejar, the "water" is a clear acrylic gel resin. The jar is 6inches tall, the octopuppy itself is only around 2.5 inches at the widest point between tentacles.
*****
An tEach Uisce - Also known as a kelpie, these water demons would drag young men to their deaths beneath the water. This piece is about 6 inches tall and 9 inches long, it's made primarily of super sculpey painted in acrylics, the mane and tail are cold porcelain.
*****
Geisha Fairy - This was my very first commissioned sculpture, I'm quite happy with how she turned out and so is her owner. She's sculpted from super sculpey, painted with acrylics and decorated with beads and cold porcelain flowers.
*****
Satyr - This is my first successful male sculpture so I'm pretty proud of him right now, he happens to be anatomically correct though that's not clear in the photos. He's super sculpey painted in acrylics, the base is wood. He's 8 inches tall reclined, if standing he would be 12 inches tall.
*****
Mermaid Bust - This is an older sculpture of mine but still one of my favorites. I've never been satisfied with the traditional image of the mermaid, I wanted to come up with something that made a little more sense in an aquatic environment. At some point I'd like to continue this idea by doing a full body sculpture.

Odin's Runesong
One of a Kind Mixed Media Sculpture
Total heights of the sculpture is 26 inches, Odin would stand 12 inches tall if her were standing upright. This is sculpting primarily of polymer clay over wire armatures, the base also has a layer of plaster over it to add texture, and the leaves are made of cold porcelain (a cornstarch based air dry clay).
Clicking the picture will take you to Odin's Runesong on my website which has the full sized photos.
Odin's Runesong won the Honorable Mention Award at the Norway Sidewalk Art Show in Norway, Maine, on July 12th, 2008.
Odin's Runesong Video
Odin's Runesong - The Creation
This is a slideshow of the 9 month process of creating my sculpture Odin's Runesong with an audio commentary explaining my sculpting process. This was my biggest sculpture to date and a huge challenge for me. Odin's Runesong is based off the poem from the Elder Edda. Odin hung on the world tree Yggdrasil for nine days and nights in order to learn the secret of the runes. My interpretation comes from my interest in body modification and ritual, Odin is hanging in a resurrection suspension with the branches of the tree piercing his chest.

Commissioning a Sculpture From Noadi's Art
Before you contact me: Have a description of what you want, size that you wish (please note I don't work larger than 24 inches tall), and any sketches or photos ready. I don't do any work based on celebrities or tv/movie characters due to copyright and trademark issues. I will do literary characters as long as you don't want another artist's version of the character reproduced. I'm more than willing to do portraits of you, family, friends or pets (for portraits I need to either meet with the subject for a sitting or receive multiple photographs from different angles to work from).
*I currently have no ongoing commissions so I'm open to others right now.*

- Wow, such artistic talent. This is one of the things I love about Squidoo, I might never otherwise have seen and read about your wonderful work. One day, when I win the lottery, I would like to own a piece of your work I partcularly love the Lionfish Mermaid, stunning image. 5* and a sprinkling of Angel Dust
