I have found sculpture one of my most difficult subjects. I feel inspired however I find it difficult to get my ideas down onto paper. I am interested in a number of things such as using wax as my main medium and have it melting and dripping. Body casting, swallows, which I have used in a number of my subjects and feel it would be nice to have it in my sculpture too as it is something that is personal to me, roses which I enjoy sculpting and also other flowers and feathers which I have recent developed an interest in. I have also looked into wings or birds and butterflies. I have lots of ideas but am finding it impossible to pull them all together.
I have look at a number of artists but the one that stands out for me is Lucy Glendinning. She sculpts a lot of things that I like, we have a similar interest in body castings, feathers and dripping. I have now looked at her twice in my book because she regularly updates her website with new sculptures. Her most recent one is 'Feather Child' which is a body cast of a child that she has completely covered in feathers.
