My first bronze casting project has been poured. Now moving to the clean up phase before getting to the patina phase.
Where do you find your inspiration?
I'm curious, do you have a "secret" that helps inspire you to get into the creative mood? Or are you in that mood all of the time? I find that it ebbs and flows depending on the day. My "secret" to get inspired starts with a walk. Often it's on a hike or exploring a new town. However, I will remove my glasses so everything gets a little blurry. Often times I'll see something in the distance and I won't be able to make it out completely so I create an image in my mind what I think it might be and as I get closer to the object it changes ever so slightly until it comes into a more clear image. Usually somewhere between what I see and what it is becomes an idea for a sculpture. Weird, right?

@Jacob Rowe I think that is key. Hitting day by day is supper helpful. And I also find playing a specific playlist during those times almost allows for a deeper dive into the time spent creating.
Working on my first bronze sculpture. "Let go"
"Let Go" We carry too through life and it makes the journey more difficult. Let go to lighten the load and live more freely. I used a combination of clay, 3D printing, Corten steel and manilla rope. The man and the ball will be bronze. Looking forward to seeing the result.

Choose your money lane 🎨💰
Trying to do every type of art at once makes it way harder to make money. For the next 30 days, let’s pick ONE main lane to focus on. Examples: - Murals - Commissions (portraits, pets, fan art, etc.) - Prints / stickers / merch - Digital design (logos, covers, thumbnails) - Content creator (YouTube, TikTok, etc.) Today’s mission: 1 Comment your ONE main lane for the next 30 days. 2 In one sentence, describe what you’d love to be known for in that lane. I’ll be focusing on murals as my main lane. What’s yours? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HA6Xmn2WIcM&pp=4gcMEgpwZXJwbGV4aXR5

@Jacob Rowe thanks for accepting my request to join the community. I'm Doug and I primarily do metal sculpture/functional art. I spend half of the year in Tucson, Arizona and half in Alicante, Spain. And I'm also starting a community here to shar with people that want to learn how to weld and create with metal. Looking forward to being an active part of this community.🤩
