Spirits can be one many ways.The medium is .032" sheet mild steel,hand cut and hand formed.Some folding was utilized forming feathers.In this sculpture, the skull is less stylized while the bird is more stylized,a matter of choice.There is hidden symbolism for you to find.With this effort, greatest growth was realized creating the Eagle head. I tried to give the bird a flow that could only be found with my hands working clay,<span class="inline left"><a href="/images/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi"><img src="http://www.artmetal.com/files/images/izigimigizi%20-f.thumbnail.JPG" alt="izigimigizi" title="izigimigizi" class="image thumbnail" width="144" height="124"></a><span class="caption"><strong>izigimigizi</strong></span></span>then transferred to metal.My fingers taught my eyes.</p> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> <p><a href="http://www.artmetal.com/blog/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi_many_ways">read more</a></p> http://www.artmetal.com/blog/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi_many_ways#comment eagle izigimigizi manyways metal sculpture metal wall sculpture skull with wings winged skull Wed, 06 May 2009 12:01:41 -0500 Frank Castiglione 8242 at http://www.artmetal.com http://www.artmetal.com/images/sculpture_gallery/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi_3_4 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <a href="/images/sculpture_gallery/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi_3_4"><img src="http://www.artmetal.com/files/images/izigimigizi.thumbnail.JPG" alt="izigimigizi 3-4" title="izigimigizi 3-4" class="image thumbnail" width="105" height="144" /></a><br /> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.artmetal.com/images/sculpture_gallery/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi_3_4#comment Sculpture Gallery eagle izigimigizi metal wall sculpture migizi winged skull Wed, 06 May 2009 12:00:53 -0500 Frank Castiglione 8241 at http://www.artmetal.com http://www.artmetal.com/images/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <a href="/images/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi"><img src="http://www.artmetal.com/files/images/izigimigizi -f.thumbnail.JPG" alt="izigimigizi" title="izigimigizi" class="image thumbnail" width="144" height="124" /></a><br /> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.artmetal.com/images/frank_castiglione/2009/05/izigimigizi#comment eagle izigimigizi metal sculpture migizi wall metal sculpture winged skull Wed, 06 May 2009 11:58:08 -0500 Frank Castiglione 8240 at http://www.artmetal.com http://www.artmetal.com/blog/frank_castiglione/2008/07/mori <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <p>I was invited to sell my art at a motorcycle happening, so I made "Mori" for the occasion.I had another one made, but he recently found a new home.Winged skulls have been around for a long time and can represent change, the soul rising to heaven, the resurrection of Christ and yes... death, to name a few.Take your pick.As I created "Mori", I thought of several variations, more may follow.</p> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> <p><a href="http://www.artmetal.com/blog/frank_castiglione/2008/07/mori">read more</a></p> http://www.artmetal.com/blog/frank_castiglione/2008/07/mori#comment memento mori metal sculpture Mori winged skull Fri, 11 Jul 2008 19:10:02 -0500 Frank Castiglione 6257 at http://www.artmetal.com http://www.artmetal.com/images/frank_castiglione/2008/07/mori <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <a href="/images/frank_castiglione/2008/07/mori"><img src="http://www.artmetal.com/files/images/Mori.thumbnail.JPG" alt="Mori" title="Mori" class="image thumbnail" width="144" height="63" /></a><p>Say Cheese...</p> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.artmetal.com/images/frank_castiglione/2008/07/mori#comment memento mori Mori winged skull Fri, 11 Jul 2008 19:09:11 -0500 Frank Castiglione 6256 at http://www.artmetal.com
