Working directly with clay, silicone, plaster and cement is a strange but fulfilling experience when you are used to modelling in the virtual world. You are still manipulating shapes, masses, shadows and edges, but things like gravity, humidity, air bubbles, and the lack of a Ctrl-Z make it a different beast entirely!
I’m happy to say that I have learned a lot from working in traditional media, and it has helped me gain a better understanding of form, shape and improved my artistic eye. I look forward to doing more in the future.
