Ongoing...

It's time to begin to define the facial features, and I added a top hat. The eye sockets will be filled in first, and then refine his features. I'm hoping that as time goes on, he will lose his resemblance to Frosty the Snowman!

Sculpture continued....

The armature is in the process of being completely covered with plaster. This will continue until the form is ready for his garments. I'm starting to realize at this point that the pinecone head was probably NOT the best idea! "Life is for learning."

Armature for Sculpture

Armature for a sculpture. This armature is constructed of left-over wooden shims for strecher bars. wood glue, and skewer sticks. The head is a pine cone. It stands about 22" high. I have no sketch, just an idea. I'll post as it progresses.
