My studies have moved to exploring the figure in sculptural form. In response to the female nudes that Jenny Saville paints. I have sculpted a voluptious female form in clay.

Instead of painting the clay figure I thought I would “wrap” her in paper as if she was wearing patterned clothing. I like the effect very much, it works well although I am not sure of the choice of actual pattern. It needs to be bolder!
