Wax & Clay

Rat sculpture making progress


"Sculpture is more divine, and more like Nature, That fashions all her works in high relief, And that is Sculpture. This vast ball, the Earth, Was moulded out of clay, and baked in fire; Men, women, and all animals that breathe Are statues, and not paintings." ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

My hands are firmly planted in wax and clay for the rest of the week. Aaah....feels good to be back in this familiar and comfortable place with nails caked in dirt.

Working off the "hump"
