Since the 24th of January I have continued working on all of the pieces shown in that post.  The fabrication process is now complete and they are all waiting for the application of colour.  I use a number of different patinas and waxes to achieve the desired finish and will post images of the methods at a later date.

As always new ideas and different versions of previously explored notions are never far from my mind.  Here are some other images of work to come.

I don’t take many photographs of my work as it develops from the initial sketch of an idea through the various stages to the completed piece.  I should probably have more records and will most likely document the processes more regularly in the future.  As for now here are a few photographs of recent pieces during fabrication.

I have been working, since late November, on a commission which involves two sculptures related in subject matter and composition but definitely individual works.  They are to go to different households but are to be interchangeable so the sculpture might be substituted but the emotions engendered by each piece remains the same.

I used Cottonwood bark and Curly willow branches to form the main body of the pieces and added other elements using armature wire and  Apoxy

The wall hangings measure 27 x 7  and 18 x 5 inches and remain untitled.
