couple of plant/seed studies...

Finger out..

Between finishing a new bunch of paintings off, found a couple of quite ancient life drawings in the archive there. Really not sure but think they may have been drawn during one of Liz or Laura's classes a "wee" while ago..

Right, better get back to work - those deadlines are looming!


-Flickr & web updates coming much soon...

Chimpanzee pitch

This was originally started a few months ago as a personal piece and didn't really come together too good - kind of resembled a Planet Of The Apes character more than a chimpanzee. Scrapped that one, reworked and using this one to pitch for a commission.

The final sculpt is actually a mix of various chimp & bonobo ref pics with some features deliberately accentuated - such as the chin fur (just to stylise a little)

Yggdrasil

Resin cast Triptych.

Ended up sculpting this as one piece, casting & splitting the thing into three. The finished piece was then mounted onto board with latches attached to clip the 3 panels if needed. Original idea was to give the roots the look of porous bone & appear opaque but settled for a slightly denser look. Created using polyurethane resin, pigment & filler.
