11th week

Before making my fourth sculpture I wanted to go big with my previous three sculptures that I have made, by essentially making full body sculptures. But after the in class critique majority of the people enjoyed the head sculptures by themselves. After much thought I decided to continue making these wooden head sculptures because I enjoy making them and the positive feedback I have received. On this sculpture I wanted to still use my freestyle approach on constructing it. When I completed this sculpture I decided that I wood add a saw dust and wood glue mix to the sculpture to create a different texture.

10th week


This sculpture I added a platform for the head to work as shoulders. The reason for this is because I'm trying to make it bigger in scale.
This sculpture I originally dropped it on accident and had to fix the mouth of the head and the top piece of the sculpture.
This sculpture indid much of the same to the other one by adding a platform to the base of the head for the same reasoning as shoulders for making it a larger scale.

9th week


   [Block Prints of my 3 wood sculptures]
This week I wanted to create a wood black print of my 3 wood sculptures to bring them into a 2D world from a 3D world. I wanted it be along side the wood sculptures during the final exhibit show. From the critique that I got from the class was very positive they saw the similarities with the print and the sculptures saying that they both contain gesture. Also there was comparisons to Pablo Picasso and his cubism technique in his paintings. I got useful feedback into how I can implement these prints into other works like my abstract paintings, printing them on wood, or printing them using colors that are similar to the colors that are in the three wood sculptures. I'm will use this feedback that was given into my work because it will strengthen the process and will create a stronger outcome that I essentially had.

8th week

             [Wood Head Sculpture#3]
This is the final installment of my head sculpture series I have been working on. I tried to use more wood for the structure of this head sculpture, making it my heaviest one. While creating this I was pushing to creat a head that looked somewhat evil but while working in this process it turned out to look more happy and not intimidating. As for this in the future along with my other head sculpture I will be trying to construct a body for them but not to sure on the scale I'm going to do. While working on these in the wood shop Russell has told me that this is somewhat similar to Folk Art. Remarks that I got were similar to the previous weeks where there was a lot of gesture and how it can relate to characters in pop culture. Also they agreed with me on making a body for these head sculptures and work big in scale
