Sculpting Again

Here is a picture of the latest work in progress, a 36″ figure in Klean-Klay. When I’m done I’ll cast it in something. It started from a drawing, a one minute pose that I really liked. It is surprisingly difficult for the model, the weight distribution creates a lot of tension. Try it and you’ll see what I mean. I did a series of 5 minute sketches from different angles, and have been working from them. It is rather difficult though, as there is always a bit of anatomy that wasn’t clear. Unfortunately, the model, Kuan, is only in New York occasionally, for a month at a time. She is an amazing model, who understands anatomy as well as being able to see and analyze problems with the work. Its really a pleasure to work with her.
