Here’s a few pictures of the mold that I made for my Luisa sculpture.  I really didn’t have time to take a lot of pictures this time a round but at least I have a few to share.

The sculpture was cut at the ankles so that I could mold the items separately.

Sculpture is cut up and ready to mold.

Hi friends,

This past month my home town enjoyed it’s 100 year centenniel celebration in the park.  Ron and I shared a booth where he showed his book and I showed sculpture.  It was a beautiful day in the park.  What was a real treat was having some from our congregation there to support us and sit with us near our booth.  Also, Luisa, 90 years of age, the subject of one of my sculptures, came out for the day.  She felt like a star because we were pointing her out as people were looking at the sculpture of her. 

Here’s a few pictures of Luisa that day in the park.

Hi Everyone,

Here’s a quick sketch of Luisa, a close friend that is 89 years old. She’s the sweetest lady that you’ll ever meet.  She is an artist herself and paints beautifully.  She eminates love to all, strangers or dearest friends. I just had to make a clay sculpture of her.  I worked from pictures that I had and memory.  I know it would be better to have her right there, that is for sure.  Now I need to have her come and make some alterations to her body because I have her torso too long and knees to narrow.  Working from life prevents backtracking and reworking the sculpture. :)
