About Me
- Sharon Hillman Martin
- My love of art revolves around the female figure. I have chosen the female figure as a means of both capturing and expressing the emotion involved in the feminine experience. Loose figure sculpture is the vehicle I use to explore emotions ranging from humor to grief. Formerly from Highland Park, IL and Pompano Beach, FL, I now live in Arizona where I continue to expand my passion for sculpting the female figure. My work has been produced in kiln fired terra cotta, stoneware and porcelain; cast bronze and most recently cold cast bronze with various patinas. My work can be seen at the Artist’s of Scottsdale Ranch annual Art Show in January.
The bust was done in a workshop I attended given by Ron Head, a local sculptor I have always admired! I was amazed at how some simple 'tweaks' make all the difference. The female bust will not be ready for the January show but I may have it there...
ReplyDeleteThe torso is shown beforeit was fired. It has now been raku fired and I love the colors.
