'Myths & Mysteries': Design and Sketchbook Pt. 2

23/3/2011

Notes and sketches of various tribal sculptures, as seen from the Pitt Rivers Museum collection.

Drawings on right page below are all considered designs for myth-based sculptures.

I produced my first carved sculpture. I used one of my designs based on the Minotaur, as partially inspired by various African sculptures. Personally, I found the end result very pleasing. The use of Indian ink and drybrushing really helped to give the sculpture its texture too.

 

Having worked on this as an attempt to create a representation of a male figure, I intend to make another at some point of a female figure.
