Meara LaFrance Blog for 465.



Beth Cavener Stichters work really interests me in the way she able to make these animals seem to have such a human like personality. She works so confidently in terms of the positioning of her pieces I wonder how she is able to support these so well, to where they don't collapse. I also enjoy the grey scale slip shes used on the rabbit above. 

Ron Muecks piece shown here shows how far realism can be taken within a piece.


Kate Macdowell. I like the way that Kate has portrays the womans' hair here, as well as the way the objects flow from her mouth. The smooth quality of her surfaces is wonderful as well something I will need to pay attention to in my piece. 

Kathy Venter. 


Tip Toland. Her pieces are amazing, this one in particular gives me more inspiration for my piece. Attention and time seems to be put into every detail of her work. The vacant stare on the boys face really brings the piece to life something I suspect is hard to do with clay just like it is with drawing, capturing the feeling as well as the character of the person you are trying to portray.
