Tell me what you think....

sculpture

my work
Joe Gilram
Joe is made out of Super Sculpy, aluminum armiture wire and painted with acrylic paints.
The Piano Tree is the same materials but also includes a toy piano (which actually plays) and green foam from a train hobby store.  The base is wood, wire mesh, super sculpy, green foam, and acrylic paints.

Joe took approximately 95-100 hours to complete (partly due to my perfectionist attitude as well as having to restart the piano a couple of times before deciding on using a toy piano). 
Joe Gilram is a caricature of Joe Gilman, a well known jazz pianist.
Some notes:
I still don't believe it's done. I would like to add a second layer to the base with a creek running through it.

Joe Gilman is interested in buying it.

please excuse the rushed photoshop job.
