One interest that I have with regards to clay sculpting is portraiture. I would love to create Beautiful bust figures that also have some sort of ancient look to them. This piece by Pamela Stern (Fortress; terracotta sculpture of a woman crowned with a tower on her head;18"H x 12"W) has that kind of quality. It is contemporary but it also has an esoteric cult look to it that interests me. That quality is probably due to the forms and surface treatment of the piece. Can anyone say Matte Copper?
