Portrait Sculpting - Over the ages one of the great artistic challenges has been rendering the likeness of a specific person. Bernini made his fortune sculpting both grand and smaller works, including any number of marble busts of popes, cardinals, and the occaisional head of state. Michaelangelo declined portrait commisions. This is a project I have undertaken on a smaller scale, working in both clay and marble.
Sofia and Mia Filia Sofia - both in Carara marble
Mother and Child - orange calcite The Sculptor - Picasso marble George Sosin - bas relief in bronze Faces (part of a series) Greek marble
