Vorax Figures 1&2

So for my AP 3D Design class I am doing a concentration on "curvilinear figures involving consumption" aka "fat people."  I have decided to call them "vorax figures," vorax is latin for gluttonous or voracious.
I have yet to bisque any yet because they take so long to dry.  Here are some in their leather-hard stage.

Shared Space Study

I find the interactions between space vs. place very interesting.  I like how we interact with the space around us, changing it.   And how when two or more people's space come into the same place how the space changes yet again, mingling.  My windows piece is also an example of this idea.

Monsters

Doing monster illustrations has become a hobby of mine lately.  The main question I try to answer by drawing them is "Where do the monsters come from?"  Sometimes the monsters are scary, sometimes they seem almost benevolent.  I think that I draw them to in a way illustrate our unseen parts, our Id.  When I draw them it is almost like drawing portraits of what is really under our skin.
