Blogs, Facebook and a broken hand

Hi, its been quite a while since I last posted on this blog.  Part of this reason is that I broke my right hand about 11 weeks ago.  Not a good thing to do when you sculpt, draw and paint on a regular basis.  I spent the first few weeks getting down in the dumps and then I just started to sculpt again...Just much slower and mostly with my left hand.  I have noticed that my creativity that I once had through "zenning out" (as ill put it for now)was not accessible with this broken hand.  I guess cos I have to concentrate more to create whatever it is Im making.  Its still ok, Ive just used to time to get a bit of anatomy and left hand practice.
Ive tried to use a wacom pen with pretty bad results.  So, no Zbrush or Photoshop for now.
Come over and like my Holonick page on Facebook too heres a link -->  holonick
Heres a few examples of whats been sculpted with a broken hand.

A sculpture in stereoscopic cross eyed 3D

Here is a sculpture made from chavant clay. I have photographed it so it can be viewed as a 3d image, once you cross your eyes and merge the two images.

A couple of paintjobs on some creatures

So while visiting LA I created a few creatures of my own as well as some for Hollywood.  Ill be leaving here soon but my creatures will stay.  Here are a couple of my personal sculptures.  More to come.

 This one above is made from ceramic then painted in acrylic paint.
This guy above is made from Super Sculpey, baked then painted in the same acrylic paint.  (click on images to see larger)

A quick bust

Here is a bust I whipped up yesterday.  I spent about 2hrs on this guy.  I wasnt in a rush, just wanted to create a creature.  Ive been doing a few things in sculpey and wanted to do a quicky.  This is done in water based clay, which is faster to work with than sculpey.  Now I need a kiln to put these ones into.

Some Exhibited Sculptures

Well I had an exhibit here in Brisbane a few days ago which was fun.  Here are some of the sculptures from the exhibit and some others that were not in the exhibit.
