I realized I was well ensconced in my Blue Period when I chose, yet again, to put a blue patina on a sculpture. Something about this colour strikes me as royal, as in the fleur de lys. Other shades of blue remind me of the…

Toussaint’s Blue Coat and Everything Blue!

September 5, 2017

Building my first giant mermaid tail was quite the adventure!  A few years ago, I completed a sculpture of the bust of the Haitian goddess Erzulie Sirène.  I was tickled pink when I sold the original Hydrostone and then a Bronze to two collectors. I…

The Tale of the Mermaid’s Tail

January 24, 2017

It’s been an intensive few months of work and travel, both for my consulting practice and for my sculpting. I was feeling the exhaustion this weekend.  Every sculpture seems to be in the final stages of hyperactivity. There are pedestals and plinths to figure out,…

When you are done the fun part, the hard work begins!

Once my live model for Icarus was in the studio, it was time to take a critical look at what I had assembled on the armature from my imagination. As I compared the two figures, it became obvious to me that a body builder has a lot…

Shaping Icarus

May 17, 2016

Johnny Legend, the Model Not all sculptors work from live models. Actually, I started Icarus from a picture I loved of a dancer leaping in the air. Such strength and abandon at the same time.  I worked on the sculpture for some weeks and then…
