Dear Friends I present artistic photo no 2 of my sculpture The Lady Shades Her Face , this was life size and modelled in clay . This sculpture was based on the theme of glamour in the style of renaissance .
Hello dear friends, I hope I'm finding you well on this Friday evening, and may I wish you a lovely weekend ahead. Tonight I'd like to present one further new photograph of my sculpture called Mirror Mirror Vampire nicknamed MMV.
This horror project was wonderful to create and I wanted to share one more new photo of this sculpture before I present a different project on here. Of course this was a horror project but at the same time the sculpture kind of delivered a gothic architecture style about itself as well which was nice to see.
One day I might even create a follow up to this sculpture in the sense that I might present half a figure lunging out of a bigger mirror, which could make for an interesting sculpture.
More artwork very soon, keep well and Take care π€βΊοΈπ
Hello dear friends, this is just another image of my sculpture MMV shown in a new Tint that I would like to share with you.
My new sculpture Wisdom is slowly forming and I will show the next in the making photo of this sculpture on Wednesday. This will show the next stage of the process of this sculpture, I'll continue to show in the making photos until its finished as I'm hoping it will be an interesting insight into the process.
I hope your having a great Sunday and I wish you a great start to the week ahead, Take care.
Artistic photo no 2 of my sculpture Little Boy Tom , life size , modelled in clay .
Hello dear friends, can't believe that as I sit here typing this it's Christmas eve before we know it summer will be here again. My sculpture Wisdom is now in its final stages, tonight I would like to present a photo showing the back of the sculpture. I just wanted to show the last stage of forming the hair style which is close to the finish.
Next week on Friday evening I will show a side profile photo of the face and then on the following week I will show a full frontal photo showing the portrait finished. To the full likeness and detail etc, I've put a lot of work into this sculpture in the hope that I can make a very life like head.
I wish you a very Happy Christmas and I look forward very much to showing you the next photo of Wisdom, can't wait to for you to see this finished, Take care.
The wooden clay armature, Hello dear friends tonight I wanted to present a photo that would be a real insight into the making of a life size sculpture.
This photo shows the life size wooden armature that I created for a previous statue I've presented on here called The Glamour Girl. This is what's inside of the clay in order to hold the sculpture in shape.
The aim of the armature is to take the weight of the clay and the armature must fit inside of the clay the same way that a skeleton fits inside the human body.
I usually create my armatures out of wood, steel brackets and nuts and bolts and once the armature is in place and the figures pose is correct. I then cover the armature with clay and slowly build up the figure and face and any clothes etc.
Of course when you look at the clay sculpture, you wouldn't know there was an armature inside, but there is and it's a very important factor of a sculpted project.
I'll post again very soon, I hope you're having a fine week, keep well and Take care βΊοΈπ
Hello dear friends, may I present a newly creative version of my sculpture called The Glamour Girl. I've taken many photographs of past sculptures and it's only perhaps over the last two years that I've started to edit the pictures. To see if I can create some interesting images that might work for future wall art, I call this image " Burning Up " and of course it's The Glamour Girl. I hope January has started well for you and may I wish you a great rest of this week, Take care π€βΊοΈπ
Dear Friends I present an artistic photo of my sculpture called The Egyptian Pharaoh , shown here in a hue green . This was modelled in clay and was about 21 inches high .
Hello dear friends, I hope I'm finding you well and may I wish you a happy midweek.
Tonight I'd like to present another creative moment from my design desk, I call this image The Spirit Of Tut.
I created this from my sculpture called Tut and this is a design idea for a possible future canvas wrap print.
I look forward to showing further art very soon, wish you well, Take care π€βΊοΈπ
