domesticated animals in particular those bred specifically as food for us. </span><span style="text-align: left;">It is significant that even when we comply with a food chain that includes meat or flesh,
many of us still want these animals to be well looked after and
humanely slaughtered.</span><span style="text-align: left;"> </span><span style="text-align: left;">Often though, we ignore
their sentient nature which is exactly like our own and they in turn have
become docile and submissive towards us. Passing a transport of animals en
route for the abattoir or even watching sheep trials can make us feel a bit
uncomfortable even when we know we will still be buying the lamb chops at
weekend.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p>

Not got the right tools yet but this was done using some cheap mini tools (don't get them) and my Stanley knife (with a new blade). I have now ordered a couple of proper tools. I love the texture and smell of wood but it's hard work. This is done in "bass wood" which is a kind of lime or linen wood. I have learnt that if you want to do bigger wood sculptures you usually have to glue blocks together first. The challenge for me with any subtractive carving is not being able to easily add more if you subtract too much and I'm not an artist who easily prepares the idea first. I tend to work spontaneously even in clay.

Sometimes it's good to go through old stuff because it can recall interesting leads for the future plus artists always need space and I am quite ruthless at throwing things out or re-using them whenever possible. This made it to the "save" pile however. Looks like I poured plaster onto the canvas panel and then carved into it and applied paint kind of at the same time. Plaster is a beautiful medium but heavy. This piece weighs a ton. </p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-26537122549905520482023-08-11T23:50:00.003+01:002023-08-12T01:42:27.795+01:00Untitled<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirscSn6SlD_euuFb3Qmncv5c7PZWylvCA83eS6rlOx8VhxZt304f_7apwSmp7R_oABYtA95qWQg4funYZe68_GsX-Q9A5z4Tey5ez7d5S43G3okawazajgRXHPqAFYIRLtpEFf8mplmxtkzxrIgVUcUsdVqUARz5tQf4gTkvt-0pkIbw0kzFty/s2521/Untitled2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2521" data-original-width="2089" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirscSn6SlD_euuFb3Qmncv5c7PZWylvCA83eS6rlOx8VhxZt304f_7apwSmp7R_oABYtA95qWQg4funYZe68_GsX-Q9A5z4Tey5ez7d5S43G3okawazajgRXHPqAFYIRLtpEFf8mplmxtkzxrIgVUcUsdVqUARz5tQf4gTkvt-0pkIbw0kzFty/w530-h640/Untitled2.jpg" width="530" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay with surface colour, about 10" high</p><p style="text-align: left;">Got a few ideas for a title but not decided yet.. Has been polished with Lithofin, a wax polish used for polishing stone. When the clay is very light coloured the Lithofin makes the dried clay look and feel a bit like marble. </p><p style="text-align: left;">With air dry clay the armature stays inside the clay forever as there is no reason to remove it. When it consists of flexible aluminium wire it can be moved or bent (for example to change a figure's gestures) as you apply the clay but not of course after the clay has dried. The drying process takes at least a week before you can apply any finishes to the piece. </p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-41339045512672757662023-08-11T23:34:00.001+01:002023-08-11T23:34:22.074+01:00Sweet girly boy<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgpT2-Y5P5RTFC-ui8_D5UXnSlDt38cSdB5lT-qQIYYBuukt4AFYxc2VRfTgyS45P6NX92xpIlNElIF0xEdx4wO-F-T7Ag7PaiETq6y29BhvCk6FzAcoNR16t-FVtPbMfYtbq5_emNMn8rmAYhUtWFVJTlfvd8yB7FlQZCk1AlInkJCadRqTea/s2102/sweet%20girly%20boy%20head.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2102" data-original-width="1575" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgpT2-Y5P5RTFC-ui8_D5UXnSlDt38cSdB5lT-qQIYYBuukt4AFYxc2VRfTgyS45P6NX92xpIlNElIF0xEdx4wO-F-T7Ag7PaiETq6y29BhvCk6FzAcoNR16t-FVtPbMfYtbq5_emNMn8rmAYhUtWFVJTlfvd8yB7FlQZCk1AlInkJCadRqTea/w480-h640/sweet%20girly%20boy%20head.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay with surface colour about 10" high</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-82483506008883795412023-08-05T10:23:00.002+01:002023-08-05T10:23:23.391+01:00A fleece as white as snow<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNzHjsrAKTEJcPRm6-KSs8iNgBZ-dafuzW_NdRc2Kn0JsHQAsZAHMAb9k9qdncyX1xwLvbfTY2Q4e94ekVsJYlC1ZQGxwu1Q-qPs0ujToY0WdKcu6dzCQufFDGKD_W2YVvQLHb1K8z2dNsjMcV0nHyWISXF4BWR__8_ewbzE2VajUp2ogF_Dm6/s3353/A%20fleece%20as%20white%20as%20snow.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3353" data-original-width="3189" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNzHjsrAKTEJcPRm6-KSs8iNgBZ-dafuzW_NdRc2Kn0JsHQAsZAHMAb9k9qdncyX1xwLvbfTY2Q4e94ekVsJYlC1ZQGxwu1Q-qPs0ujToY0WdKcu6dzCQufFDGKD_W2YVvQLHb1K8z2dNsjMcV0nHyWISXF4BWR__8_ewbzE2VajUp2ogF_Dm6/w608-h640/A%20fleece%20as%20white%20as%20snow.jpg" width="608" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay with surface colour approx 11" high</p><p style="text-align: left;">Still enjoying the clay work and also painting in between.

Blogger to me seems superior to Instagram in terms of colour and tone of images. I usually edit these issues in Photoshop so the eventual image that goes on both blogger and instagram is the same. Also, I don't think the Instagram interface is as conducive to conversation and that includes conversations taking place just with yourself. I can reflect on process better here. There isn't that "hurried" feel about it. As one artist said recently, art is not and should not be a production line. We are not in the game of producing the same thing over and over. Despite similarities each piece is always unique. </p><p style="text-align: left;">As to the current work I am experimenting with different approaches to surface colour. Air dry clay is so easy to use but you can't fire it at high temperatures. In fact you don't fire it at all. It does what it says on the can - dries in the air. This has a lot of advantages - kilns take up room and are expensive to buy and rent space in. Also with air dry clay I can make a strong wire and foil based armature which remains in the figure for it's lifetime. This not only gives added strength, reduces weight but also allows for small gestural moves to be made as you are actually working with the clay on the surface. This makes it more akin to working with paint on canvas in a spontaneous abstract way. Changes can be made to clay work. However, kiln dried ceramic work can take advantage of high temperatures to produce beautiful colour effects with oxides and glazes. It depends what you want out of a piece. With the work I am doing at the moment I am happy with that "just discovered this in the ground" approach, laugh out loud. I love ancient stuff that looks like it has weathered a storm or two!</p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-24239817615503621322023-07-09T12:05:00.006+01:002023-07-09T16:48:18.887+01:00Savant<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUstW3m5OPsDSF0LHWq8Ro-W8O1G9b12AA3MERI5_oHNNyKCwu8Xnbr9Fjkzz-qjvAO0oXbvVuTSGnQsRrvNSxX4LftAQeOleA0p_oJZEOr1fqtFSDypJ-kiLhv6sTS_Rgd1CjYJOjp5V2rh4Wx0wzv19E7XqDAXS5WW-uJRF8j8-sPvm6eRx_/s3360/Savant.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3360" data-original-width="2512" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUstW3m5OPsDSF0LHWq8Ro-W8O1G9b12AA3MERI5_oHNNyKCwu8Xnbr9Fjkzz-qjvAO0oXbvVuTSGnQsRrvNSxX4LftAQeOleA0p_oJZEOr1fqtFSDypJ-kiLhv6sTS_Rgd1CjYJOjp5V2rh4Wx0wzv19E7XqDAXS5WW-uJRF8j8-sPvm6eRx_/w478-h640/Savant.jpg" width="478" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay with surface colour approx 11" high</p><p style="text-align: left;">Made with air dry clay (Hobbycraft own brand) and coloured with acrylic.

Antony Gormley called clay the "flesh of the earth" plus I have been looking at programmes about ancient fossils and also looking at 14th century sacred statues.</p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-88840175033723405712023-06-29T09:52:00.003+01:002023-06-29T09:52:59.254+01:00Two clay figures<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIx86pTDbrXREDW8N_Wc2As8_XYlxDHarfAYZPzihx33U6QXcpQuJKwobVZ_VarnbL4S0R6gFoatnU1YTYimuBKStKilxjyQUHUM7p4kQkJ8atbv7cvz7mplbxS_lkySr9f9l8QJtiI4r_KuX6b-rFldbMXvv_rc0oMGyIFX4tsUOLi8wJOe11/s2499/Duo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2416" data-original-width="2499" height="618" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIx86pTDbrXREDW8N_Wc2As8_XYlxDHarfAYZPzihx33U6QXcpQuJKwobVZ_VarnbL4S0R6gFoatnU1YTYimuBKStKilxjyQUHUM7p4kQkJ8atbv7cvz7mplbxS_lkySr9f9l8QJtiI4r_KuX6b-rFldbMXvv_rc0oMGyIFX4tsUOLi8wJOe11/w640-h618/Duo.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Two clay figures with surface colour, about 12" high</p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-14813890821408525842023-06-24T12:03:00.001+01:002023-06-24T12:03:11.787+01:00Woman leaning<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd50QEAiWZ5HpR_Sa-bYSmIBBUzpoWYDJjeiGSAEcyvkgF6QTB84JezVVLD4vuwm2eDZUhetihJ9V8e5Pf_WriWHBkzm18tbN-DWzqDqMvyae-v7vVIPZuOKjs0mu-PrkkEMGp0NcaawEzGmS0vPuCe8TX_bfRYBs3PHfPKE3WOeVBr2E8s4T4/s3279/Woman%20leaning.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3279" data-original-width="2377" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd50QEAiWZ5HpR_Sa-bYSmIBBUzpoWYDJjeiGSAEcyvkgF6QTB84JezVVLD4vuwm2eDZUhetihJ9V8e5Pf_WriWHBkzm18tbN-DWzqDqMvyae-v7vVIPZuOKjs0mu-PrkkEMGp0NcaawEzGmS0vPuCe8TX_bfRYBs3PHfPKE3WOeVBr2E8s4T4/w464-h640/Woman%20leaning.jpg" width="464" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay with surface colour approx 8" high</p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-89537878922437887832023-06-22T11:06:00.002+01:002023-06-22T11:06:26.409+01:00Man with a bearable burden<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNiKWU1dNiVF8UVPTx8KCTxKEwgYKiOIWPkfKqV-U7CUHHq59IX58Jyh7mSR-KOO-CrcFvmxBO03mGcjtzS1JrhUJ5QbDne2EbIvdSdVrhE4nWyHWfzVf9Kxn4rcryV9YXT0nzG6QQuwLzfprIpDMYKN1XFwupeY_8KFXHidBuhl6_TvokMr3q/s2783/Man%20with%20a%20bearable%20burden.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2783" data-original-width="1554" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNiKWU1dNiVF8UVPTx8KCTxKEwgYKiOIWPkfKqV-U7CUHHq59IX58Jyh7mSR-KOO-CrcFvmxBO03mGcjtzS1JrhUJ5QbDne2EbIvdSdVrhE4nWyHWfzVf9Kxn4rcryV9YXT0nzG6QQuwLzfprIpDMYKN1XFwupeY_8KFXHidBuhl6_TvokMr3q/w358-h640/Man%20with%20a%20bearable%20burden.jpg" width="358" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay with surface colour approx 12" high with base</p><p style="text-align: left;">I have been working on a series of terracotta clay figures using air drying clay. I feel as if they are waiting to be brought to life so I suppose that's good. I shot this "in situ" with bright sunlight coming through the dormer window and didn't mess with it in Photoshop much at all. </p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34113196.post-6737638975709961512023-05-18T09:56:00.003+01:002023-05-18T09:56:16.954+01:00Assembly of Watchers<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIs4WJeGzqvxi_j12Jbc8qoYl_nSMurBvWm2MQcZtUmyd0F6IK_WZ443tQ6myzcLH_eazx_VS1OH9OfZPK5Rq1UU3QY34AYjn4ZVsxWZdhFw21s83SEcp0BtRJ_6saO8cAXvlo5ZK3wZmkODQoDNH3qnfspULe6uvgWCRv6fpBWPf5JJ_lBg/s3385/Assembly%20of%20watchers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2851" data-original-width="3385" height="540" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIs4WJeGzqvxi_j12Jbc8qoYl_nSMurBvWm2MQcZtUmyd0F6IK_WZ443tQ6myzcLH_eazx_VS1OH9OfZPK5Rq1UU3QY34AYjn4ZVsxWZdhFw21s83SEcp0BtRJ_6saO8cAXvlo5ZK3wZmkODQoDNH3qnfspULe6uvgWCRv6fpBWPf5JJ_lBg/w640-h540/Assembly%20of%20watchers.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Clay, shredded cardboard and string approx 6" x 10" x 10"</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>Sheila Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com0
