This is the first blog on my new web page. Feel free to share your experiences with your muse, the creative, mythic impulse to create a meaningful dialogue with yourself and the universe.
Lately I have been working on a relief sculpture of a water dragon, and one of three people that I am calling ,for now, the welcoming woman.
The central figure's arms reach all the way out so her hands extend beyond the canvas. I knew this would cause trouble, having the hands extend beyond the canvas, but I couldn't resist the impulse. I had to sacrifice some finesse with the hands and they look a little clunky because I had to strengthen them so they wouldn't get knocked off. It was a compromise. I wouldn't ordinarily recommend doing this but what are you gonna do? Sometimes you just have to do something though you're not sure why.
I don't know what they signify, yet I have faith. Their meaning will become clear as time goes on.

I have since this stage added a mixture of Elmers glue, joint compound and sand. I'll show it as soon as I am done with that stage.
