Drawing- 24th of April

This lessons drawing had us going to the Yorkshire sculpture park. The park featured a wide variety of  sculptures from sculptures of people, abstract shapes and some sculptures that were just weird. The park also featured some of Henry Moore's work, he's a pretty big deal in the world of sculpting, some may even say that he is the biggest deal of all sculptures.

One of the first sculptures was this small building with a square hole in the ceiling, this was so that the roof could act as the frame for the sky.
This is one of Henry Moore's sculptures, called "Reclining figure: Arch Leg" this is one of the many sculptures in the park that are based on abstract shapes

Heres another one of Moore's work, "Large Totem head". It looks more like two conjoined canoes if i'm gonna be honest.

Draped Seated woman is also by Moore. it's of a broad woman with a uniquely shaped head

This is one of the more weird sculptures, "Crawling" by Sophie Ryder. it's a huge anthropomorphic rabbit, if you look closely you can find things like gears embedded and other industrial oddities into the rabbit
