Ceramic heads by Sarah Saunders

EnglishGuys in these last weeks I’m – especially – obsessed by sculptures and heads.

It’s probably for this that the ceramic works by Sarah Saunders immediately caught my heart.

I recently discovered her Facebook page… but I’m already hoping that she will soon make many other!! :)

P.s. I have two new “crafty” books in my hands… would you like the reviews?  Should I make them?
Pleeeease, say yes! :D

ItalianoIn queste ultime settimane sono – particolarmente – fissata con le sculture e le teste.

Probabilmente è per questo che i lavori in ceramica di Sarah Saunders hanno subito catturato il mio cuoricetto.

La sua Facebook page l’ho scoperta solo di recente… ma sto già sperando che ne produrrà presto molte altre!! :)
