Pygmalions sketch book

I think the latest one is your best work you have shared so far. I like the film poster look. Great. :slight_smile:

Great poster. I like the perfection of cyborgs.

Very atmospheric. Love it - my favorite so far.

Blobstroke Thank you so much sir
Rulonis Thank you so much for your kind words .
Boozy thanks for your feedback my friend ,it really helps me keep going . :smiley:

Here is a simple anatomy study I did a few years back .
Done in Zbrush and filtered in Photoshop for a charcoal effect .

Amazing work as always.So natural.:wink:

Thanks Diablo my friend ,its just a study but I think it works for what it is .:wink:

It’s been a couple months since my last post. In that time I’ve decided to take advantage of a treasure in my own back yard .
I have the good fortune to have been raised only a few miles from Brookgreen gardens a large outdoor garden with a collection of around 1445 works of american figurative sculptures .
So I feel its about time I try to learn from what these great sculptors can teach me .
I will be posting my progress from time to time .
The first piece I’ve been working on is one by Edward McCartan entitled Dionysus ,I hope you like it .

Ah so that’s where you’ve been the gardens?!!
Surprised you didn’t come back a Primitive after all that fresh air.

Nice sculpt - look forward to seeing what else you’ve been studying from.:+1:

Thanks Boozy, yes the gardens at Brookgreen are beautiful and the sculpture is copious .
I will have a lot to inspire me .
If you get to the states and pass through South Carolina, as an artist its a must see. :smiley:

Thanks for posting the link to the Brookgreen Gardens Mr Pygmalion - they have sculpture workshops too!! I wanna go and maybe find a bush to live in.

Lovely additional views of your sculpt and a very good day to you Sir.

Thanks boozy. I’m about to post renders of my latest piece ,the original was sculpted by a former artist in residence at the garden .
At one time she taught those classes you mentioned .

My next sculpt is a copy of a living sculptor ,a former teacher at Brookgreen, Gwen Marcus .
It’s a lovely bronze piece ,The Bather has a more natural feel when compared to the unabashed classicism of McCartan’s Dionysus .
I hope I was able to do her work justice , and I hope you enjoy it .

I believe good Sir, you have indeed done Gwen’s piece justice.
Interesting to read that Gwen studied under Bruno Lucchesi for this piece in particular has a vibrational relationship to Lucchesi’s work.

How I wonder are you finding the emotional experience of digital compared to traditional sculpting?

To be quite honest with you boozy, I haven’t touched a real piece of clay since I was a teenager .
I seemed to gravitate to two dimensional media .
It wasn’t until I discovered Zbrush that I fell in love with digital sculpting.
I hope to avail myself of a class or two at Brookgreen soon.
And see if my digital skill will translate into the real world .:wink:

great job. Looking forward to your next piece.
