Background:

I have never really enjoyed figure modeling until recently. It had always

been required in sculpture foundation courses, but it was not something I

looked forward to. Over the past few years I have been experimenting

with it more often, and I really do find it a fun pursuit. These are just a

few projects and studies. Nothing serious!

“YVES”

"YVESwas created as a demonstration for my students in a Figure Modeling course. I am including a number of rough shots of his development below.
