Sculpting portraits in Stone!

Portrait sculptures

This group shot was taken for a centerfold in a Montreal Art Magazine in 1978, Hence the telltale white space in the middle. Diane is in the back, and moving left to right are Painted, Simplicity, and then Michele.

​

The ensemble displays the rich texture of the

jade-quality Canadian Serpentine I used

for most of my sculpture work. It's a

marvelous medium which can be

sculpted with mallet and steel

chisels, yet doesn't scratch

once polished.

Michele

Sometimes, you’re called on to use space in the place of the stone you don’t have. Michele does thatwith her elegance!

 

She is one of my earliest portraits. Michele was sold by the Gallery Colbert, in Montreal, in the 70’s.
