Artist's Comments

Another sculpture I made a while ago when I was still in high school. This is made of low fire sculptor clay, and colored with watercolor. It's about 10 inches in height and 11 inches in length. I don't remember how long it took.

I made this after going on an AP Bio zoo field trip and we had to do a little research on 50 animals. This was one of the animals on the list and I loved it so much that I made a sculpture of it. I think I didn't make the legs long enough....

Here's a little info on this amazing animal if you're interested. The Maned Wolf is a type of fox/wolf like canine that belongs in its own genus and has extremely long legs adapted to the high grass lands of South America. They use to be hunted because they were thought as a threat to humans and livestock, which was false, and they were also hunted for their eyeballs (wtf?) because it was thought to be a good luck charm. They are currently under government protection (unlike the wolves in America *coughdamnyouBushcough*) and they are near threatened/ vulnerable but their numbers are fairly stable and are not critically endangered.

that is really quite a wonderful talent you have. If someone gives me a lump of clay,. it turns into looking like... well... a more deformed lump of clay. :]
:iconsprinklez:
your sculpting talent is so incredible ;_; the anatomy looks totally perfect in my eyes, and clay is hard to work with! *worships*
