Re: Making sculptures to go on the Coppice

"Nope, sorry, photo chopped or not they look like something cut out with a fret saw and unfinished.
I could show my 9 year old grandchild how to make something better with a stanley knife, at least the blood stains from her handling the blade incorrectly would show a little more life.
Must the Coppice be used as a dumping ground for someones half-hearted efforts at what they claim to be art?
BRING BACK THE PANOPTICAN ALL IS FORGIVEN!"

Less - When I say 'comments welcome', I mean useful criticism, pointers, helpful information that may inform my practice.

Not insults and how dare you be so harsh and rude about something that someone is putting a LOT of effort into. I knew that I would have to be hard skinned by posting my work on here as I understand that everyone has their own opinions and likes/dislikes different things. YOU clearly do NOT understand that.

Who says I am claiming this is art? or trying to make them look life like? They are to represent memories. This is a project for my 3rd Year Degree at uni, I have learned to open my mind to different styles and accept other people opinions. You, again clearly have NOT.

As I have explained before these are tester pieces, of course they are unfinished and the photo shopping quality is bad because they are again, example of what MIGHT be made.

Just out of interest, why would someone (who supposedly values the area) want a big ugly glass and metal building plonked ontop of somewhere as beautiful as the Coppice........... but not want sculptures, made of of wood taken from the Coppice, in the form of people and animals that use the Coppice all the time, giving something back to the Acrrington people who appreciate the views the Coppice has to give?

My sculptures will blend into the Coppice and give the dying wood a last spark of life (cheesy I know, but true).

Think before you speak Less. Your could have sent me a private message letting me know your opinions, but instead you have tried to embarrass me and humiliate my work in public. Why so negative? You should be ashamed.

Morbertol and cashman, thanks for your positive comments
