Me at 38
If I may make some slight adjustments…
Nice, but you forgot to tell us how old you are.
69
Nice Art!
The ability of artists to make marble look soft and/or alive and/or see-through will never not completely floor me.
Because you mentioned see-through-ness and the above images don’t really showcase it, I’m just going to leave Giovanni Strazza’s Veiled Virgin here:
Marble scatters and transmits light in a similar sort of way that flesh does
This is the 15 years of experience at the age of 25 the industry demand.
10-15 years of using software thats only existed for six months…
That bernini detail is actually insane. Marble work blows my mind.
Packs of roaming gorgons used to be a real problem back in the day.
They didn’t have porn, so getting good enough to justify the live models was a great motivator!

I don’t know much about statues but I had to double check the 2nd one was real, like those conturves of the fingers look so awesome. I honestly have no idea what we can do with stone exactly.
Oh Bernili was done much more recently than I thought. Not that I don’t think it’s awesome for sure but they’re like 500 years apart.
Still love seeing newer art, should include the full piece too for comparison. Still a nicely done piece.
They’ll say the same thing about my MS Paint skills.
