'The Devil's Grip' by O Tupton What about this for a WEIRD sculpture? Tupton's portrayal of a beautiful woman in Satan's clutches is superb! There are similarities between some of this artist's work and that of Great Fantasy Art Legend Boris Vallejo, to those of you who aren't familiar with Vallejo's work that compliments Tupton very highly indeed. Measures 18cm/7.5 inches tall by 13cm by 13cm The detail is fantastic as usual from this sculptor, from the veiny arms and hands, Leathery fingers and pointed claw nails. The damsel is completely naked and wearing only celtic band jewellery on her left ankle and arms. Cast from solid cold pewter/resin which is made by mixing resin with finely sintered metal, then polished to develop a superb patina which gives the finished piece the appearance and feel of solid metal. The balance of the piece is a bit top heavy and requires careful placement to avoid toppling over incidents, however on a flat surface it will stand up and It also displays very well laid down as shown in a photograph. Our sculptures make superb Birthday gifts, retirement gift ideas and leaving presents or are also suitable as corporate gifts. |
