Abstract:
Modeling techniques, together with plastic ones, play a decisive role in the creation of a sculptural work. The sculptural animalistic genre uses the same materials as the sculptural portrait and nude: ceramics, wood, chamotte, bronze, to which are added the techniques of coloring and toning. Thus, modeling and plastic techniques
are a single whole, tightly connected, which contributes to the manifestation of the idea of work, which is intuitively foreseen by the author from the very beginning and takes on contours more clearly in the modeling process in the material.
