Art - Haku: Spirited Away
Jul. 19th, 2014 07:33 pm


I think what amazes me most isn't so much that I managed to sculpt this but that it actually came out how I had pictured it in my head. I think sculpting may become my art medium of choice. While I do love to draw, I'm kind of limited in terms of poses, in that I can only do profiles and my brain has a tendency to trip over itself when it comes to shading and trying to make things more three dimensional. But clay is all dimensional, and I was seriously surprised how easy this was to sculpt. It was like I didn't even have to think about it, I just did it, and the only setback was my sometimes unsteady hands, clay that had gotten a little too soft and stubborn wire.
For my next project I plan on doing either the wishing tree from The Night Circus or something from one of my own stories, or possibly Jack Skelington from Nightmare Before Christmas.
