Starting the back board

Day Two


Working on the life-size sculpture of the Revolutionary War Rifleman/Militia soldier. Went to my favorite Home Depot to get the supplies I need as the support for the clay sculpture. Then I cut the boards and cleated them together to make a 7' x 2' back support board.

 

Next I drew a 18" x 6' rectangle, the finished size of the end of the ORWM wall. Fortunately I have 8' ceilings in my small studio. Final step today is drawing the figure onto the board in a rough form.
