I’m currently working on these two sculptures, however I have had to wrap them in plastic to keep them damp as I have been called away to work on a painting for an exhibition for UNICEF, the children of Nepal [earthquake] which will be held in Italy. Back to these when the painting is finished. They are ‘Alice and the doormouse’ and ‘The cave of the wild dog’. They are terracotta and yet to have the oxides and underglazes applied

HOME AGAIN [For now] 17/06/15
Posted: June 17th, 2015 by Liadaan.
I’m back home working in my studio. Winter is always a nice time to work in the studio. I have many sketches and lot’s of inspiration to work with. Also a good time to let go of things and move on. I decided to let these two unfinished terracotta heads go back to the earth in the rain! Yes, actual rain in Maldon.
.
BACK TO THE EARTH – Terracotta – I decided not to finish these two heads so they are going back to the earth in the garden. They are going the way of all things.
18th July ’15 – One of the heads has completely disintegrated now. We have had more rain and the coldest winter for years.
