Bruno Walpoth

 So after I saw Brett Amory in SF + the power of the  social media= I got a new friend for Facebook. Brett recently posted about another artist that I thought would be interesting to share.

Bruno Walpoth is a 3D artist who works predominately in wood and metal. His work is mostly figurative with a termendous amount of craftmanship. He will take a solid piece of wood and turn it into a realistic representaion  of his human model. He too has a white-wash effect like Brett Amory.

I like that his traditional process in art making. If you look on his site under drawings, you can tell that the well made drawings are studies for the 3D work. Its a nice reminder that drawing is important to the process and equal to sculpture or painting.
