Shout Out to William G. Tucker

William G. Tucker
All though most of my recent artwork is 2-dimensional, paintings, collage, and drawing, in the past I have done sculpture with clay.  Mine were miniature sculptures compared to the work of British sculptor William G. Tucker.  With his work, massive pieces of rock are carved with a modern flare and given form.  Sculpture is special because it occupies the same space as our bodies.  We walk around sculptures, it engages us to use physical movement to view it.  Sculpture is not always conveniently placed at eye level, like most paintings.  Sculpture makes us want to touch it, to engage more senses in experiencing it.  Enjoy!
