A few pieces revisited.

The bases have been repainted and revarnished. An improvement to enhance the sculptures visual appeal.

L.S.Lowry. The Cripples

I did this piece back in February 2022. It's actually one off my favourites, but I wasn't quite happy with the completed look. To rectify this I've elevated the base which seems to off done the trick.

It's funny looking back at your work. Today I probably wouldn't of made this sculpture, after being a support worker, supporting adult with learning/physical disabilities. However the piece was done to see if I could emulate the painting into a Papier mache sculpture as the picture and caricatures fascinated me, and I also wanted to do justice to the work of L.S.Lowry. I hope I've achieved this?
The last image is with the original base.

This is my latest Papier mache sculpture. I've named this piece:-

A Scouse Seagull (The Scream)
This piece is heavily influenced from my time living in Liverpool. When I first came to Liverpool I was greeted by the biggest Seagull I've seen, eating a rat behind Lime street station! I learnt very quickly that Scouse Seagulls are proper gangsta!
I became a support worker and spent many days at the Albert Dock reading the messages on the lovers locks. Special memories were created.
Why Edvard Munch. The Scream? I couldn't think of a better expression when confronted by a rat eating Seagull.

Height: 18cm (including base)
Length: 23cm
Width: 10.5cm
