glass foot monster: Complete.






Finally!!

I haven't had a chance to post for a while because I have been SOO busy. I'm talking about class from 9 to 5 and every night in the studio till 2 or 3 am making making making...and getting really dirty.

This project has actually been done for a good week now. I've been working on a hollow form that went in the kiln today. (YAY!)

Ya, so the lighting makes it hard to see the details because I really want everyone to see the noses, lips and ears. After this piece came out of the kiln, I must have spent a good 10 - 12 hours in the cold-shop grinding and grinding and grinding. The reservoir was attached at the top, so I had to carve all the noses back in.

The harsh transition from the red to white was pretty cool because it made the foot flow into the red stream. The red stream was made from liquid latex mixed with some acrylic paint(for color correctness). It's really fun when it dries and peeled right off.
Anyway, it was very tiring, but sooo worth it. The critique went great and I'm looking forward to my new mold coming out ahhhh!

Thanks! I hope you all like!
