Hello dear friends, very recently I presented the original colour photograph of my sculpture called Tut. So tonight I thought that I would present that photo to you as a black and white photo.
I always like how clay sculpture looks in black and white photographs, it seems to give an almost more striking appearance about the piece .
I'm looking forward to presenting the next photo of The Lost Boy Of Venice on here very soon , hope you're having a pleasant week, keep well and Take care 🖐️👍🤗
Hello dear friends, this is a workshop photo and is a first look at my new sculpture called Wisdom. Wisdom is actually going to be a portrait sculpture of one of my late Grandmother's.
I had two very kind and beautiful Nan's, my lovely Nan Topp who was my father's Mother and my lovely Nan Tribe who was my Mums Mother. This sculpture will be a portrait of my late Nan Tribe as I just seem to have a few more photographs of her. And if I'm to create a fine likeness I need as many photos of my subject as possible.
The sculpture will be called Wisdom because as a little boy I remember feeling back then as though my dear old Nan new everything I ever asked her.
This photo shows the sculpture at stage 2 of the process, I will now begin to map at features as I start stage 3 of the sculpt. There's a long way to go but in the end this will become a very detailed life like portrait.
I hope your having a great week and I'll look forward to showing you more of this, the development on this sculpture soon, Take care.
Dear Friends I present the artistic close up photo of the puppet character creature design that I sculpted . This was life size and modelled in clay .
Hello dear friends, just a little something I've created here from a photograph of my sculpture of Tut. I call this picture the The illusion cut Tut, I enjoy creating these on the computer, it's a little bit of creative imagination time away from sculpture.
Wisdom has just 3 more weeks and then I will be able to show the photos of the sculpture finished and I look forward to that. For it will mean that I get to start a brand new sculpture and I've come up with a wonderful idea for a new project that I think will be interesting.
As always I hope your keeping well, I'll show another photo in this gallery very soon, Take care.

Hello dear friends, may I present in the making photo no 2 of my new sculpture called The Lost Boy Of Venice. The base and upright tablet is now ready and I've currently added 38 leaf's to the base .
This has significance to the story of the Lost Boy Of Venice which I will explain in a later post. I've also added the little step that the little ghost boy will stand on, and the round circle up in the corner will become an item that the little boy will be holding.
The two screws will help to support the sculpt of the figure of the little ghost boy which I've now begun. I look forward to showing you the next photo very soon that will show the development of the sculpting of the little boy.
Hope you're keeping well, Take care dear friends 🙌🤗
Hello dear friends, today I am presenting to you a black and white photograph of my sculpture called The Little Lilly Boy Of Italy. I have shown a portrait photo of this sculpture so now I present a photo showing the full figure, this was modelled in clay.
This sculpture was life size and was designed with an Italian feel and style about it. This photo was taken just before the sculpture was about to be moulded, this project was a delight to create and ment a lot to me.
With luck the next shot I present will be a new photo of my sculpture MMV, Happy week dear friends I hope your keeping well, Take care.
Hello dear friends, may I present myself to you here, I took this literally after I received some good news and I would say is a true reflection of how I'm feeling right now.
In October I have a pre Visa meeting where everything will be explained to me about visa application requirements. I'm very interested in going out to California and perhaps becoming based there as an artist and I'm hoping this might be a first step to achieving that dream.
If all goes well at this meeting I will then set travel plans in November for when I will fly over to see what it's like. If I truly like it there and California likes me kind of thing then it will be after this trip that I will then see about being based there full time.
I'm on a real journey now and only time will tell if this will become something I can achieve, I would like very much to share all the stages that I go through with you here. Wish me luck because I'll really need it, I will have my fingers crossed.
Where ever I end up I will still try to present some fine sculpture to you, In the meantime I have to sculpt hard and save hard. I'll show the next stage of my sculpture Wisdom very soon, Take care.
My sculpture called Little Boy Tom , life size , modelled in clay and shown here as an artistic photo .
