I’ve added some artwork to the new Works in Progress gallery. There are some pencil and charcoal drawings, an alabaster sculpture that doesn’t look like much of anything yet, and an experimental sculpture in a Plaster of Paris and perlite mixture which turned out to be very slow to dry, taking detail well when wet, but very crumbly and fragile when dry. Maybe laquering it will add some strength.
I kind of like working in with this mixture, as it’s easy to shape while wet. And you can take your time to do it over days if not weeks, since it’s so slow to dry. But its fragility when dry is a turn-off. So I’ll have to see how it holds up when varnished.
