This was going to be a post on Friday when I logged in to
upload the pictures and discovered the horror that had happened to such innocent souls in my home
state. I was so dismayed and saddened
that posting anything like this was out of the question. I'm still left quite troubled & in deep sorrow over the
matter.
That said, I'll simply post some sketches I've done of
proposed and completed sculptures.
I have a class with AAEA coming up soon, and other things on the horizon but I'll wait to talk more about that. For now, just sharing some exercises in sketching sculptures or sculptures to be. The last
being just practice (with no intention of becoming a sculpture, that's just one
of my dogs).
It's been such a weird holiday season around here. It's warmer than previous years (I think),
even for "the south". Granted NC
isn't as warm as FL in other words but being just a jaunt from Myrtle Beach
with palm trees & gators around here & yeah, it's not going to get
exactly cold but still, I am pretty sure it's warmer than the last 2 years. Our first year here it snowed & was nippy
at times! Lately it's been tee or light
shirt weather during the days. We aren't
going back for any family holidays up north, and while we have a mini tree and
decorations I just am more introspective than anything this season. I've even been to a couple of holiday parties
but still, I dunno. It looks and feels
like early fall to me out there still.
I'll get used to it! In the
meantime, more art underway over here... keeps one on course.
I heard a good quote on a sculpting forum I shared on FBs
studio page, but I'll share it here too;
"People ask me, how do I get my ideas? I can only reply that I
don’t need ideas, I need metal." David Vanorbeek, Artdeev vanorbeek.com
