Ceramics

I decided I would experiment a bit and do some ceramic work, I have recreated a statue of zeus but used a drawing I had done of the statue as a reference point.

I tried to give the piece the same effect I had given the drawing, giving an 'unfinished' look to it.

The piece isn't as successful as I had imagined it to be, the structure of the face lacks a realistic quality to it which gives it an unprofessional appearance. for example, the cheeks, nose and eyes don't have the same strong structure that it should, also the hair and beard didn't turn out how I had imagined it , I tried to give it a thick wavy appearance but once again it didn't  work out, it instead has the appearance of clay worms.
