I've always loved Edvard Munch's "The Scream." I decided to try my hand at sculpture...paper mache to be more precise. It is easy to prepare and work with, and is a crazy amount of fun. I probably destroyed it five or six times trying to find a gesture that was in keeping with the energy and raw emotion in the painting. How powerful a word...SCREAM! This was for an alcove in the house.

Really well done, quite impressive !
ReplyDeleteThank you Jane. Not sure if it's the first thing an arriving guest in our house should see...a figure screaming. Might be sending the wrong message...ha!
