People often ask where my ideas or inspiration come from. Well, many different things spark my creative spirit and my imagination. For instance, the skates below that I found in a second hand store struck a note and I knew I wanted to make a sculpture incorporating them. Then I thought I could expand it to a series of "kids" on wheels since I had an old wooden scooter that I purchased many years ago, and a bicycle fender that could be turned into some sort of vehicle. I got to work and did some drawings of possible sculptures.
Below is the work in progress using the skates. This sculpture will also include a dog on a skate board. I'm also doing a painting of this work. I've shown the very start of this with the underpainting. I usually don't show my work in such early stages, but I thought it might be fun to document the process - more or less.
The finished works will all look very different!!! Stay tuned...
