Chav Gorilla

Calvin has finished and glazed his Chav Gorilla. He's got his bright blue baseball cap, fat gold rope, can of lager and his bull terrier straining to rip your insides out.

Working on a commission

Calvin has been working on a commission recently which is quite exciting for him. A lady seen the website and got in contact with him to ask if he could make a sculpture for her.

It'll be finished in a few weeks — it's drying right now —and then I'll put some pictures online of it.

Collector in New York buys a gorilla

Gorilla and the doughnut.

Great news! An art collector from New York has spotted one of Calvin's sculptures on the internet and has bought it from The Gallery on the Corner.

Well done to Paul and Robin at the gallery for helping with the sale and especially well done to Calvin for being so creative. Well done son.

Chav Ape ready for glaze

This has dried out now and is ready for glazing.

Teacher's pet

Here's the final gorilla Calvin has done as a gift for his teacher from high school.

Another day, another gorilla!

Calvin is making this one for his art teacher. He's leaving high school next week for the final time and wants to give her this as a present.

Strong Gorilla

Calvin is making gorilla's faster than I can take photographs of them at the moment.

Chillaxing.

Relaxing gorilla.

Munchtime.

Calvin started a new sculpture today. It's bigger than the previous gorilla and he's added a bit more character. It's a huge gorilla enjoying a doughnut for lunch!

Gorilla

Calvin decided to make a large gorilla from clay tonight. I'll put more pictures up when he's finished it. Looks good so far.

T-Rex

Calvin has made a t-rex that is to be auctioned off for charity at his school. He is also gifting them the red elephant that he made the other week too.

Calvin's inspiration

Here's a picture of toys Calvin's collected along the way. Lots of presents and pocket money.

His collection includes Ben 10, Simpsons, Lion King, Disney Cars, King Kong, Godzilla, Family Guy and Toy Story.

King Kong (again)

Calvin is now making a version that sees Kong standing on top of the Empire State building, throwing punches at passing planes trying to shoot him.

I also found a close up pic of the previous posts Kong's hands.

King Kong

Here's a start to finish of King Kong. Calvin is right into King Kong and Godzilla at the moment.

Anyway, he made this Kong the other day and it's brilliant, even if I say so myself.
