AHHHHHHHH SCULPTURE!!!!!!!

Fri Mar 20, 2009, 3:09 PM
I have a life long lover: SCULPTURE! She has never cheated on me; she has been unwavering in her love. That is not to say that she has not caused me great sorrow- she has. It is not to say that she has not been demanding- she has. But in the end, I am a sculptor at heart. If you cut me open, I would not be surprised if you find a fistful of clay instead of a muscle beating, keeping me alive! I have had two of my sculptures made into bronze and I must say that they are my pride and joy ("Rodin's Beard" & "Divasaur") and I think if they alone stand the test of time and represent me a hundred years from now, I would have no problem with that. Yesterday I posted some of the small sculptures I have done out of clay and fired. These miniature works are simple sketches for what I would really like to do: MONUMENTS! I will be posting more of these in the next few days. Yes, I draw and paint but nothing- NOTHING is like making something out of clay..............Yes, it is even better than that!

hey thanks a lot for favouriting my "æuroboros" sculpture, and my "Centaur" sculpture.
I apologize for my late reply. I haven't been too diligent in answering my messages.
take care...drive safely

Thank you for the kind words. I don't believe there is anything more beautiful and dynamic (and a challenge for the artist) than the human figure. I love to do hybrid forms: 1/2 human, 1/2 ? I'm in a very sculpture mood lately but also working on illustrations for a children's story that I've written as well right now, so I guess I'm traveling between the 2D and 3D worlds LOL.

In creating art, we should approach it with the same intensity, purposefulness, and sensitivity that a spider does when making its web.

That is awsome, It's rare to see multi-talents on dA usaly they will just draw, or paint, or photograph, or sculpt (well usally sculpters draw or sketch aswell :-p). You sketch, draw, write AND sculpt. Going to be keeping an eye out for your work. :-)
