Jim's Sculpture in Progress





The photos were taken in the scene shop at NMSU so you have to ignore the background. These are some of Jim's extrusions. Even the people were extruded and altered. Jim's going to be doing some carving on the wood base and the sculpture is meant to be on the floor. He calls it "Family Outing."

I think Jim's painting is much more developed visually than his extruded sculptures. His extrusions might be more interesting if he assembled them into larger forms or worked on making them more interesting by combining and adding parts. As they are now, they seem to be just glazed extruded tubes and do not make a strong visual statement. Has he looked through any of the recent extruder books for ideas of how others use them to create forms?
