He was one of the most celebrated sculptors of the period after the war.  He had a 7 year teaching position at the Royal College of Art in London. At some point he was also a war artist at the onset of World War II. Internationally his art had impact, but it slowly went away after his death.

    I like his work and his use of shape and texture! Wish the images were bigger though so guess I will have to banish you for that :((

    I really like the simple design of his works. It looks very clean and very modern! I would have to agree with Flora that if the images are a bit bigger, we would be able to see it up close and the fine details!

    I like the simplicity of his work, and how although there isn't a lot of visible texture, the shape really takes over. But I do have to agree with Flora and Minnie, I wish the images were bigger to add to the details.

The piece most people know is called Beowulf 3D and it was created using 3D Max, Vray and Zbrush. I even found his Facebook page haha. So he is known online pretty well and his works are so good and detailed and they make me think of video games since his sculptures or most of them are of characters like Batman or Superman.

Animal Difference

The two animals I think are visually different are wolves and sharks. In a 3D way, wolves and sharks are different. Some ways that wolves are visually interesting are because compared to sharks, they're a land animal and an aquatic animal. The tail of a shark and the ears of a wolf both are completely different and yet they both have the same appeal to me. Sculpturally wolf ears, shark tails and dorsal fins.
