My Pin Up Sculptures

Pin Up sculptures. Medium:  polymer and ceramic clay. I learnt so much whilst working on this project, including my love of sculpting. It's definitely something I want to continue doing. These sculptures were created as temptress female characters to encourage men to eat more fruit and vegetables.
