| This is my first post on this web-blog. I’m not sure but I think that it might be an ok way to share art ideas and conversation? Low relief-carved faces are seen on many historic items on the coast. I enjoy looking at Tlingit low relief faces, because they have the appearance of being highly sculpted, but are often carved very shallow in depth, and this presents a challenge. These pictures are several inspirational historic examples, followed by a few that I made an effort at after studying the attributes of the old classic pieces. Thanks to Tommy Joseph of Sitka for his pictures of the old historic masterpieces. |
