Always liked clay sculptures, but as I find it very difficult to work with, I never could produce any decent results. Maybe, that is why I became a painter and not a sculptor.
I like how you captured your idea with a quick sketch. I find that an essential step with my work as well. Nice to see, how they both hold on to each other, despite the storm. Really nice interpretation of the theme!
Thank you @reinhard-schmid for you kind words and encouragement. It means a lot coming from a great artist like yourself.
The sketch is definitely an important step as sometimes I get lost while sculpting and the the sketch helps me get back on the right direction.
