this is what i have been working on for the last 4 months or so. its a commission i did for Mark Parker. it was so nice to work so large and to really spend some time on one thing and basically have all the freedom in the world. thanks to Brad at Loop-Tremont for letting me use his space to shoot this.

Scott this is a wonderful piece. Congratulations!
Question...did you also detail the carriage, or did you find it as is?
PS...Those snowflakes would make fantastic ornaments....next year perhaps? Keep me on your list. ;)

Holy Canoli!

Well that's slightly gorgeous! The detail is amazing, I loooooooove it! Looks like a lot of hard work (and yeah 4 months worth, huh?) but it paid off. Happy holidays!

Re: Holy Canoli!

thank you! yes i've never worked so long on something.
it feels great now but it was hard. i am so used to finishing up in a month or so and getting that finish high.

Really nice work. Are the burlap-wrapped figures solid inside or stuffed?

Gorgeous! All of this came out amazingly well, the babies are especially fantastic. Having free reign can be daunting but you really put together a great piece.

Still waiting for my call from Mark Parker ;)

December 19 2008, 20:22:08 UTC 3 years ago

thanks. yeah it was like putting together 3 or 4 sets of work and trying to tie it all together as i am working on it. i was not used to that but i hope i can do it again sometime.

really amazing! stunning work as always.

Those snowflakes would be cool as ornaments but being that small is seems that they might lose some of what makes them so interesting.

[info]scottradke

December 20 2008, 14:38:04 UTC 3 years ago

thanks!
yeah they would have to be much smaller.
i'm not against it i'd just have to do them differently.

Yowser! Even more of a fan now

YOuch!
Those are mind boggling!
You've got organic and human-made forms really understood!
Those textures and paintjobs boggle the mind into not being able to guess what materials you use.

Re: Yowser! Even more of a fan now

thank you so much. it seems i can only pull off painting on a sculpture. i never feel comfortable on flat surfaces. i use a lot of magic sculpt, apoxy clay, everything else is wire and tape or whatever else i need to get the shape.

Awesome in every sense of the word.

Is this piece titled? I love the flakes, as if each flake has a contained spirit! And the children, eerily apathetic. Great mood overall! What was the theme or purpose for the commission? And how were these fired? So impressive!

December 20 2008, 14:44:28 UTC 3 years ago

Re: Awesome in every sense of the word.

no it isn't at this point. i feel really awkward titling work.
no i do not have to fire my clay. its apoxy clay and magic sculpt.
