Creating sculptures with recycled materials
Having got the bug for creating figures I am experimenting a bit more with materials to enable me to use more recycled materials.
The basis for these figures is clay and once I have got the posture I set about working on dressing the figure.
It is great when you can find materials and a style that you enjoy working with, and unlike drawing a character you get a better sense of the story that comes with the completed figure.
I found a gentleness and calmness about this particular figure, but also a strength.
She is finished with bronze effect paint and sequins for decoration. I hope you are inspired to experiment as well, and see where it takes you! Blessings
