My idea for this piece was to do a sculpure of someone i found interesting. I didn't really know i was doing her at first, but i just went along day by day. This idea evolved because recently i just finished The Tudors, which is based on Henry the 8th and his 6 wives. My process was kind of long, i took a half the semester so far to finish it. Now it may not look like it took that long but i spent a super long lime on it. First i worked on my coil base and then i went in with smaller coils to the torso. I then just worked on the detal little by litte, and lots of smoothing out and made sure to have it very detailed. The most difficult part for me was for sure the hands. I tried to make them as realistic as possible. If i were to start over i don't know what i would do differently. I had lots of time that i spent on this so i don't think i would change anything. This art piece is realistic. This is unique to my personal style becuase it shows some of my interests, and what i like. I love just the torso part.
