The only thing we really didn’t hit this week while talking about sculpture is how it can be such a wonderful type of work for mixing media. Sure, adding props, embellishments, and clothing is pretty common with polymer figure sculpture, but it doesn’t have to end there. How about mixing two-dimensional art with three-dimensional objects?<\/p>\n

Renata Jansen<\/a> creates these ethereal figures that come across as both alive and yet painterly. In fact, she calls her work “3D paintings in clay”. In her piece “Ava” you see here, it is rather hard to tell where the sculpture ends and the painting (which is both on her body and on the background piece) begins.<\/p>\n
