Wednesday Weeks 13 & 14 Sculpting

Worked on enlarged model – abstract sculpture. Constructing my design for the social commentary constructivist sculpture – the next project.

Friday – weeks 9 & 10 Printmaking

Plexiglas series of Greek Men commenced. Layout plan for book. Photographs to be used both as inspiration for the 19 prints and as additional illustrations scanned and put into slides. Started etching for the Greek Cat series – the first one is based on the photo of a young cat in a flower pot taken in Monemvasia, a cliffside village on the Mani (Peloponnese).
