Today Professors Van Wyk and Versluis began the installation of our large scale sculptures. I just ran out there to snap some photos to share with y'all. The assignment was to work with a partner to create a 4-foot tall figurative sculpture. I worked with Katy Dekens (You can check out her blog from the link at right). We had a good time working on them even though it was a little stressful and very time consuming. As you can see in one of the photos, a portion of the male figure's rear end exploded off during the firing. Hence the stick holding it on while the glue-stuff dries. The sculptures don't stick out very well since they are all very earthy color and they are on the edge of a dry field (behind the BJ Haan auditorium) So anyhow. They're out there. Not all completely installed yet... but they're there.
The other photo is not of a sculpture. It is of Meg. She made some chicken salads the other night that I thought were pretty photogenic. What do you think?

poor guy...lost part of his buttock...that's gotta have a negative effect on one's self esteem! Looks good though! Hows your summer going?
hey when kev and i move into the 8 plex we'll be expecting a welcome to the unit salad. alright? because that's what neighbors do for each other.
Having a rear end explode during firing sounds like something that would happen at the shooting range! That would be an awful mess!
Well, anyway, I just found you here and updated your link on my blog.
Also, glad that you found a good cook and I see that she is looking out for your health with "heart-healthy foods"
your sculpture looks good. i haven't seen them since the last day of classes...or before they were' fired. I'm glad to see that they're finally home, in the field, where they deserve to be. hope you're summer's swell.
