holding her up.

First day with the model in Sculpture 2

I made my armature on tues and began appling clay to it today. I forgot my camera - so no pics- I'll have some on Monday afternoon. So happy to have the model because we can really see how the shoulders and hips relate to eachother . I started to understand weight distribution and volume of the belly and chest better. Also, the twist of the spine under the flesh. I had the tailbone in the wrong spot!!

copper wire

I wish i had taken a pic of my armature today. Liking it a bunch. Gotta cover it with clay on thurs.

Didn't think I'd display this painting - EVER!

Here it is.

Beautiful and Ugly

Ugly

Beautiful

What do I think is beautiful? What do I think is ugly? And why?

Finished and hung up!
