Her
face isn't particularly "pretty" as I feel that goddesses are just like
people, and don't look like someone from Hollywood. I'm really not
interested in duplicating what Disney has done.

Her heart is empty as she is twisted in the wind.

Roots and branches, holes and rough textures, all point to the inspiration of nature.

Wood has it's own patina, and shapes when growing. I tried to replicate this process, though I was using clay and glazes.
Wonderful sculpture and patina (glaze)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda. I really don't remember what I did for the glaze. This was made a few years ago. Maybe I wrote it down, since I've learned the hard way not to trust my memory!
Deleteoh wow this is gorgeous...love the texture of her skin....very cool...
ReplyDeleteThanks Brian...she is actually cool to the touch too!
DeleteOh gosh Barbara, I agree with Brian, absolutely gorgeous! Thanks so much for stopping by, I have enjoyed my visit here very much.
