First, here's a portrait done during the Spring semester, learning about forensics. We started with a 3D scan of the model's skull. We applied the clay on top of the skull (cast in plaster) and learned about the average depths from skull to skin in different races and for male and female.
Here is a relief of a waterfall. I was thinking of the kind of nature I saw in Japan, and how there is a flow to their art such as in calligraphy and ink paintings. This flow is also maintained in social relations.
Next is a direct plaster sculpture I have been working on. I might refine it a little more, but plan to leave it fairly rough.
Finally, here are some small studies for a series of large reliefs I want to create. They are about the body as landscape. Though the connections might not be visually evident yet in these studies, I am looking at surrealism (mainly Dali) and Japanese ink landscape paintings, as well as Renaissance reliefs such as Ghiberti's bronze doors for inspiration as well as technique.
Or with a few photoshop modifications:
I've played around with the composition of this one in photoshop as well:
This next month I am traveling a bit, which may limit me to watercolors, but I'll be sure to post anything new once I am back and settled at home again.
Till then,
Lisa Robin
