Day Two & Exhaustion

Day Two of the workshop with Janis Wunderlich:

Janis works alongside us, circulating, giving demos, doling out advice and encouragement. 20140701_175003.jpg
Here she is working on her own piece, with an in-progress work (that she brought with her) in the foreground.

Her figures are incredibly complex, with a lot of surface detail:

Some of them fit into the palm of my hand.

This is the first piece I finished, a mook-ish like figure in a party hat, waiting for his guest--?

The guest, also in a party hat:

The second figure I started is a bust, built with coils, hollow, like Janis's own work. I've made three small pieces and one and a half large pieces in two days.

My god, I'm exhausted.
