Figure sculpture

    I wanted to do this post for a while now, but for some unknown reason I procrastinated. This was the sculpture I made with the recycled clay from the relief sculpture I spoke about before. This was my first full body sculpture I've have ever done. It was a little more challenging than I had expected. Since I already felt comfortable with drawing figures, I thought that building a sculpture of it should be easy. With the help from my professor I realized that an important information to know when starting a 3-D piece was to build up the mass of the object, such as the bust of the figure and everything else was about shaping and details.
