"Old Woman WIth Pink Hat"






This is a piece that I've been thinking about for awhile now.  I found the walking cane at... you guessed it! The Maumee Antique Store.  It was $6 so I figured I wasn't out much if it didn't work.   This is just a preliminary photo shoot but I'm happy with the way it turned out.   I'm not sure about the brick wall,  I'll have to think about that some more.   I'm digging the milk jug!   In the right light I can see it having an almost marble like quality too it.   This piece is quite a departure from my work at BGSU.  My work there was very traditional; I worked mostly with wood, bronze, clay, glass and cast iron.   In the two years I've been out of school,  I've found myself more and more attracted to, and heading towards, a more conceptual/ installation type of work.   I still see myself working with traditional materials but maybe not quite as much.
