All of my work so far has all been on quite a small scale. I next decided to go bigger. To experiment with this I borrowed a mould and started casting big. This allowed me to experiment with larger scale water erosion.
The erosion on this scale worked a lot better than before, allowing whole sections to become really deeply pitted on the surface yet not fully eroded away. I next decided that I needed to find a way to accent these. Because of the nature vs culture aspect of my work, I decided that applying a lot of red iron oxide (the colourant in naturally found cheap clays, and then sponging it off would give me the contrasts I was looking for.
This worked really well and so I decided to do it to all of my forms.
