It's been a long time since I sculpted in wet clay. I'm working on a seated angel. So I'm having to figure out how to hollow out the innards to allow everything to dry evenly. I am posting photographs of day one: armature made of a pipe fitting and newspapers, blocking in of large shapes to establish composition, size, scale, etc. She will be prettier as I work it out. She will not be nude by the way, but the proportions have to be right before clothing is added. Tonight I am contemplating wings with feathers.
Is that going to be a set of wings behind her, or is it just a backdrop?
ReplyDeleteThis has similarities to something I once saw, an Indian chief praying to the Great Spirit.
