Stumble is...

Brilliant! Stumble is an add-on for your internet browser which brings up random pages that could be relevent to you.
And through my boredom, I clicked on Stumble and low and behold what should load? A sculpter who I found a few years ago and was absoloutly amazed by, but then lost his gallery.

This man is Mark Newman, a very talented artist who's work is absoloutly stunning in detail.

Looking through his gallery, here are some pieces that really stood out for me:

Eel Walker
Eddie Riggs 2
E.V. female bust 2
And my favourite Sisters- the expression in the faces are just amazing- there's just so much life in their smiles it's beautiful.
And they are so dynamic too- they just don't "sit" there, they twist and flow and curve in amazing ways that just completly lead the eye around the piece.

Sculpting has always been something I've wanted to try, but alas my hands seem too clumsy to deal with it. I'm sensing yet another summer project coming on though, as honestly, how could you not be inspired by this artist?
