This Saturday at Thinkspace Gallery!

More Zombie Cat...

 

Getting there...slowly but surely getting there...need to sculpt some teeth in sculpting epoxy and get them into the clay to make sure it all looks right...but today was good...I think he looks waaaay less gremliny and way more cat like. Still some major tweaks to finish up, and then some minor ones but definitely closer...

Zombie Cat continued...

Ok, ok...got in 45 more minutes on this guy...getting somewhere but still needs a lot of work. I am trying to find the right balance of how evil I want this cat to look...maybe this is too much? Too gremliny? Does he need to be so evil? Is he a 28 Days running zombie or an original Night of the Living Dead strolling zombie. (I am scared of both but zombies that run scare the shit out of me...) Hmmmmm...

Me on the Interwebs...

Click here for the article from the examiner.com about Inliquid's Benefit, look for my name around the middle of the list of mentioned artists.

And here for an article mentioning my last year win of a Knight Arts Challenge Grant.

  I also recently rejoined Inliquid, a fabulous website for artists in the Philadelphia area. Click here to see my new profile.

And last, but certainly not least, I was recently asked to be in the All Alone Together artist collective. I think the above logo is currently being redesigned but click here to check out the beginning of what I think will be a fabulous group.

30 more minutes...

30 more minutes on this guy today. So no real progress, but did flesh out his body and head a bit more. Still need to play with the pose...something is not quite right yet...I need a good few hour long session to make a dent. I still have time but don't want to slack...

And here we go...

I started sculpting this piece this week and these photos document only about 30 minutes of progress...(Olivia was having a nap while the light was good on our 2nd floor, but ended up waking up earlier than I thought...) So it's nothing too exciting but its a start nonetheless... And I got to work with this amazing black clay (more of a dark brown really) that my friends Homer and Nora gave me for Christmas...I LOVE IT. Aside from the sexiness of black clay, its so nice to work on the piece in a color that is very close to the actual color it will be when its finished. The pose will change some and the piece needs to be filled out a bit more but its the very beginning so I'm not too worried at the moment...
