New Terracotta Sculpture, A Few Photos

Erik Jan 08, 2009 — 8 comments

I recently had a request to resculpt a version of the Jesus Head. So here it is. It’s terracotta, I just finished it so it needs to dry and be fired. Having been occupied with painting lately, this is the first sculpture I’ve worked on for a while, and it was a good time. I’ve got clay left over (found for me by my mom’s friend who is an artist, click here to see her site ), so I’m going to do a few more soon. Ahhh, the tension mounts.

This picture I took from the highway; there was some weird sort of convergence of clouds that made the setting sun coming through look like a comet streaking across the sky. At least that’s what I saw. I tend to see strange things. More obviously, this picture is reminiscent of Lost Highway. Robert Blake as the Mystery Man may be the creepiest thing ever filmed. David Lynch is awesome.

This is Lake Michigan from an airplane. There’s something otherworldly about the color of the water with the floating ice and the haze of the atmosphere.

This is just a good picture. Very good. According to me.
