This is a one year old sculpture I made at my old art school. Unfortunately the teachers didn’t take the ceramic class seriously so the sculpture ended up standing waiting for the bake over half a year, even though I asked every week when I could bake it but they just postponed it every time. If you haven’t worked with stone ware you might not know that it’s really fragile when it’s dry and waiting for bake. And just look at that horn… Of course after six months three centimeters of the tail were gone. Someone couldn’t resist touching it or bumping into it. RAAAAAAAGEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
I don’t know if this piece will ever be finished since even though I found the tail I can’t reattach it.
So enough rage and a little about the sculpture:
This sculpture is a statue of Celestia. It was supposed to end up in matt white and the main/tail/crown in gold.
When I made her I realized that making a sculpture, or other art for that matter, is like having a relationship. First you dont know if you dare to start but once you start, everything seems so easy and harmonic. Then you start to grow tired of each other and start to argue and fight. Sometimes you find back to each other and everything turns out well, and sometimes you do not. Im so grateful Celestia didnt give up on me.
