CLAY and TEETH

The sketchbook image was made while the person who posed was actually taking a break.

It inspired a drawing that now lives with the poser.

It inspired a painting (shown here) that was rejected by the poser, but accepted by the City Gallery Open, Leicester in 2009.

And now the painting has inspired the sculpture.

I know a song like that................."I know an old lady who swallowed a fly, etc.," Do you know it?

Anyway, this clay figure now sits covered in plaster awaiting its final casting. Havent decided on material yet as bronze is now out of the question.

Am attending networking events in the creative industries sector publicising ARTCELL to those who might engage it in community events/schools/etc.,or who may like to collaborate on a project, and am also pushing STEVE B. ROBINSON in the line of Unique Works of Art to Your Commission, i.e. portraiture and abstracts. Meanwhile am also organising life drawing events where I am tutor and...........nope, not gonna say until its sorted.........

Oh, and the tooth part of the blog title? Its sympathy seeking............ had a tooth extracted today. Lots of blood. Thought dentist was going to dislocate my jaw.........he did dislocate my wallet, lol.

Well, keep life interesting folks, happy birthday to Claire Hilton at end of this week, think good thoughts, love all and hurt none.

Namaste
