More study of Geese

Thanks to  seldom Seen Farm, the Sculptress JOEL had lots of geese available to study and photograph

This one is particularly like our boy!

Greedy Goose sculpture position of his plate

To make sure his right leg developes correctly, the Greedy Goose needs the plate adding in its postion

Work can then continue on the legs and feet

Greedy Goose sculpture head developes

The shape of the head and bill outlines are developed and the pins give a guide for the location of the eyes

Greedy Goose legs and feet start to be formed

The muscles and articulation of the tops of the legs can now be added and the feet  studied and sketched in

During the process work is also carried out on the surfaces of the wings and  tail

Gradual increase and build up

Width of  breast - the pins help with monitoring width development

The new clay is a slightly different colour and shows the increase across the Goose sculpture

The Greedy Goose form is developing now, and progress has been made right up to the head

From the front we can see the progressive increase in the width of this bird

Base developed

The base for the Greedy Goose Sculpture has been covered with clay and developed
