21st Century Three Graces
"21st Century Three Graces with Cellphones, Sunglasses, Flip flops and Frisbee"
raku maquette for bronze
I've always been a big fan of Botticelli and I especially love his painting, Primavera. Pondering what those ladies would look like today, I came up with three graces that are overweight and flabby rather than ethereal and willowy. They are distinctly earthbound rather than otherworldly, which led me to give them plenty of worldly trappings: cellphones, sunglasses, bikinis, cans of soda, flip flops. Life's a beach.
Yes, I've started a blog: deborahdendlersculpture.blogspot.com
