A beautiful bas relief I designed and sculpted with plaster😍. I wanted this piece to feel modern and simplistic, yet also have that detailed classical look that you find in a lot of older interior styles. Already found a new home for this one🙌

‘William Zorach (1889-1966) was born in Lithuania & brought to Ohio in 1891, moved to New York City in 1912. An artist who ceased oil painting in 1922, having discovered that sculpture suited him better; he tried to let the stone or wood take its own shape, whether in large public monuments or in smaller works. Zorach took art classes at the Educational Alliance as a child & quit school at the end of the seventh grade to become an apprentice at a lithography firm. From 1905 to 1908 he studied drawing & painting at the Cleveland School of Art, then spent two years at the National Academy of Design in New York. In 1922 he gave up painting for sculpture. Zorach’s stone & wood carvings & his work in plaster & terra cotta are stylistically rooted in Egyptian, Greek, and, to some degree, in primitive art. Highly successful throughout much of his life, Zorach received many commissions, including Spirit of Dance for Radio City Music Hall.’ https://poulwebb.blogspot.com/2021_01_10_archive.html

Working on a floral bas-relief using a sculptural painting technique.
This art form involves applying thick paint or plaster with a palette knife to create textured, three-dimensional flowers that rise off the canvas.
The technique is associated with artist Katerina Ignatova.

6 two inch bas relief pieces mounted on tiny canvases. Bright colors and textured, flowing shapes that look like aerial photos of landscape features.
#ArtAdventCalendar #basrelief #moldingpaste This is from an online class I took with Maria Grossbaum. Molding paste with extra stiffening mounted on tiny two-inch canvases. I should make more, I have a large supply of stiffener (a particular brand of toilet paper!) Day 11.

Le bas-relief est une technique sculpturale où les figures sont peu saillantes et intégrées au fond. Contrairement à la sculpture en ronde bosse, la profondeur est limitée. #Basrelief #Technique #Sculpture #Figures #Art

a bas relief (if that's the term? slightly raised) brass sculpture at an educational nature center, depicting a young cougar, staring at the viewer with an expression resembling discomfort and judgement. Sunlight from the upper left of the room casts a white shimmer on the right side of his face, while the left is more shrouded in shadow.
