9 | St. John's Castle clay relief | 2005-03 |
Guest Artist: Rockycrop This was the first clay study of my four children from a photo of my four children in Ireland outside Saint John's Castle. I love modeling with clay feeling the figures grow and move through my fingers. I don't like the weight of the clay and I wanted to attempt this piece in plaster which I'll be able to paint. I'm learning how to model in plaster, it's not as manipulable as clay it's like painting impasto with a palette knife |
