After several weeks hiatus, I am back in action, with another update. These are pictures of my latest project, a piece that a friend of mine commissioned to remind him of home in Africa. I originally intended to post a video of the piece, however it was quite dark and did not capture the level of detail I hoped for. The Lion's head proved more time consuming than difficult, in that after forming the head with a coil I made the mane out of individual lengths of wire about three inches long, manually inserting each one into the coil and crimping it into the coil.
I have since completed the sculpture for the contest winner, and will post a public unveiling video on the blog after she receives it. Expect the video sometime in the middle of next week. I also hope to add some pictures of my current noncommissioned project.
