Peacock

Study of a peacock.

I decided to begin my study of the peacock by drawing the head. In order to really draw a whole peacock, I felt it necessary to start by creating a close up of his head where the most detail lies.

Bird Sculpture Nearly Complete

The Bird is almost finished. It is still wet, so I am thinking about any last minute additions and if I want to put some sort of finish on it.

Bird Sculpture's Body

Front

I have now attached the legs of the bird sculpture to the body.

And now I wait for it to dry enough to add the head...

New Bird Sculpture

I have started work on a new bird sculpture that I am hoping to have ready to try and enter in a show by June 6th. The show limits the size and weight of work to 42 inches in any direction and 75 lbs. So, I am working rather small.


This is my sketch for the sculpture.




Thus far...

I have begun to wrap the legs and head in cement. Currently I am waiting for them to dry enough so the cement is strong enough to hold the sculpture erect.

Senior Art Exhibit

Since I am not currently working, merely thinking about what I will do next, I am posting some images of work from my senior show.
