Rubber Mold and Flocking

This is a piece that I am working on for mold making. I am attempting to make a rubber mold of piece so that I am able to cast my work in multiple different materials. 

 This lil guy below was a piece I made a while ago and finally just finished. I originally had big plans for his pillow that didn't pan out, sooo I flocked it.

Some finished pieces

Over the last few weeks I have been working on getting some finished work and trying to find a way to display them. With these two pieces I tried somethings that have been running through my head. Overall I am fairly satisfied how they turned out.  This piece below was finished with a gold luster and on a hand sewn velvet pillow.  

 With this particular work I used a wax over the ceramic finish to create a fleshier surface with more depth.

 Mold making project finished.

Work and such

This is one of my newer pieces I have been working and is almost completed. My ideas are constantly changing and I am always developing new directions to take my work in.

 Here is a completed piece that I have used bees wax over the ceramic surface in order to create more depth .  Overall I am pretty satisfied with this surface but it still needs some more work.

Adventures in Mold Making

This semester I am taking a class in mold making. For one of our projects we had to create a 2 part mold and then we had to take 5 casts of that. 

 These next 3 pieces were made from my molds that I made and ones that other people have made in the class.  We had an assignment to make a 3 part combination piece using 3 molds.

Stuff

Piece I have been working on and working through some different ideas with.

Work in progress

This is the latest piece that I have been working on focusing a lot on the folds and wrinkles within the flesh.  Within my work I have moved towards referencing the body and really trying to capture a sense of flesh.

Study

Here is a study I have been working on for some newer pieces I plan on making.
