Heads
This piece by Ellen Blomgren is pretty neat. I love the concept behind it, and i can only imagine how cool the inside of the head is from this angle. The face doesnt look too right, i think the eye brows could be push out a little more, but that doesnt take much away from the overall piece. If i were to continue down the sculpture route i would definitely look to pieces like this for inspiration. Something with a little more meaning that the typical head, but i would try to work more detail into the face and hands.
