Finally finished my #figurativesculpture in wax. He'll be cast using the 'lost wax' process - he'll be dipped in refactory plaster to build a shell, then put in a kiln and the wax will melt out. Molten bronze will then get poured in. It's a one-chance only process... a bit scary! 😬 #malenude #art

The dude whose been stealing Garfield parody/ strip art to make a book originally said ' maybe I should have asked' when questioned. He doesn't give a crap about artists copyright.... and yet the fucker has the nerve to put this copyright notice on the book. #EndHim

I've just finished season 6 of #thegoodfight
What fantastic, pertinent show. Christine Baranski is such a great actor! Diane Lockhart is my queen. ❤️

Slowly getting there with this male nude dancer life sculpture. I was supposed to send it to the foundry yesterday, but I'll detail for another few days.
N.B Air pillow packaging is very handy! 😁 #art #sculpture #figurativeArt #MaleNude

This is literally a jacket filled with warm piss.
I wish we had this button on Bluesky.

Noodling away today. I want to get this wax figure finished by Monday & sent to the foundry. It takes 12 wks for the finished sculpture to be sent back to me as bronze. This wax sculpture will be destroyed in the process. #sculpture

My French translator just delivered the translation of my #MM historical romance Les Demons de Wychwood.
I've formatted the manuscript. Just waiting for the blurb translation and I'm good to go!
It should be live by Monday in France and Canada on Amazon, Kobo etc

Hell no! I've got some lovely human translators. Not only are they masters of their native languages, they enjoy my writing & can put their heart into telly my stories. I hate that translators will lose work due to this. I'm disgusted that these AI translations will be sold beside human translation.

This might work!

Really, this is your take? A young man in mental crisis asked the chat-bot for help- the company that provided the chat- bot service IS responsible for everything it generates. The man's method of exit isn't the issue, the tech that goaded him to end his own life is the issue.

The left arm is done and I need to shape the right arm and his head. Then I can get down to muscle details, his face and decide on the surface texture. I kinda like the roughness. It looks amazing in Bronze...we'll see. Having fun anyway.

I love working with hot wax. This is my progress so far with this dancer figure. Shaping is slow work, holding a wax tool over a candle flame. I pondered on whether I should have his junk in pants or not. Rock out with your cock out for the win! 😂

Sculpting with hot wax today on a figure I hope will eventually be cast in bronze. I've got a foot... #artistsofbluesky #sculpture #figurativesculpture

I don't have much of my life sculpture work from yrs ago. It was sold,given as gift or thrown out every time I moved. (A LOT) So, I'm making myself some small pieces to get cast in bronze. I'll make a plaster mold of this, then cast in wax and rework it. I'm having fun remembering old techniques.

It's very dangerous that people don't know what's true anymore. I question every image and video I see. It's good to learn the tells of AI imagery. One of the biggest is lettering. Check signs, books on bookshelves, shop signs, protest banners. Like here, the signs are nonsense.
