relief sculpture

Title: The Sea Floor

Materials: polymer clay and plant

artist statement:

while making this piece I went through multiply different ideas from leaving the octopus on its own putting it on canvas to eventually making a base out of clay. I wanted to continue doing marine life throughout all of my art just because of how drawn a am to the ocean and the animals within.

while making this piece I was dealing with aspects I have never encountered before including a baking period and this type of clay. I normally don't use clay and so this made it difficult but I love the challenge it presented.

overall i am happy with my piece and feel happy with the outcome even tho it was challenging moving it from destination to destination.
