Day 31


Today is a special day- I start my second month, and this piece is hopefully the beginning of a larger project. It is inspired by Michelangelo's unfinished works, as well as by Sisyphus and Atlas.

I froze a block of sculpey and carved this out, additive and subtractive style, as practice for the next step-- carving it out of foam. I want to eventually carve it out of plaster.

Day 30



Today is a special day- this is my thirtieth sculpture- one month. This one is something I've wanted to do for a while. Its not perfectly accurate, both because its hard to find consistent diagrams on the internet and because I can't make it perfect. Lets go for month two!

Day 29


Something different today- made entirely out of printer paper. Definitely the most precarious piece yet.

Day 28


This is modeled from an over-sized chess piece/book-end. I think it would be really cool to make a full chess set.

Day 27


Another raven-- I really like this form.

Day 26


I was never able to do with this what I had wanted, but its still unusual and different if nothing else.

1.2


Slight changes made to the last one, on the ears and mouth. I'm rarely fully satisfied with these pieces, and I have to stop examining the pictures after I post them.
