Stevie, a work in progress




I was going through my drawers looking for something a few months ago, and I came across this unfinished sculpt.  Initially, I sculpted this piece while I was going through my cancer treatment. He looks like how I felt at the time, which was "hell".  I think it was time to breathe life back into him, and finish him up.  Back then it was a reflective piece, to work out of my system how miserable the whole experience was.  Now, my health is better, and I look at him with a different perspective.  Perhaps with hope and perseverance, that he can embody these qualities to my collectors.  I think no matter what challenges we face in our lives, that we can over come them and through these obstacles, we become stronger.  So......here we go.......Meet Stevie, my wonder mouse.  :)

  2. I really like the way you have photographically illustrated the process. I have a question for you, what do you use to do the initial sculpt?
