Wild Boar Sculpture

I've got my first steel Sculpture commission, exciting milestone in my Artist career. I was asked to create some artistic wild boars sculptures my first idea was bit too complicated and required a lot of material so I went back to the drawing board. Taking inspiration from the well know great Picasso's bull drawings, using a few simplified lines to give the essence of the form. 

I plan to do the same, although in 3D form I hope the viewer will be engaged to walk around the sculpture and piece all the shapes together and get the sense of a physical boar.

 

It needs to some more welding, then it will be taken to be galvanised and painted. After showing my client the progress she would like a whole family making. I now am currently making another adult size boar with three baby boars. 

Stay tuned for the next boar sculptures.
