And here is where the base was.
Here we are now:
I hope to finish this piece by the end of summer. I think it is within the realm of reason. I plan to show it in the San Leandro AEC gallery in September (SLHS faculty show). Then I hope to donate it for a auction of faculty work that could support art at San Leandro High School that I hope we can set up for early next school year.
So if you have gotten this far I am talking to you you ARE qualified to answer and I would appreciate the response. Do you think the base overwhelms the piece? Do you think this piece is good enough to sell in a gallery and if not what would you change? Keep in mind it is not finished I plan to refine the shapes of both the base and the woodcarving. Also the base might be painted yellow and orange.
Here are some smaller projects that might get done this summer.
