Arthur kneeling (2006)


In 2006 Arthur posed for me. His trained muscular body nicely contrasts his humble poses and personality. In this sculpture I found out how to sculpt an impossible posture by combining different real life postures.
The first dark brown casting is in the posession of the model.

The second cast (lighter brown patina) I traded off with collegue sculptor Boudewijn Klop (for one of his sculptures).

And finaly I had one cast made for myself. The Ferric Nitrate patin is much lighter than other patins I know.
