Emile, love your work. A perfect example of the right shape not requiring any special patinas or paint to be beautiful. The rear view torso really captures the beauty of shape, IMHO. They're all very pretty! Did you make flexible shape patterns for this project? If so pictures of that process should be included! Thanks for sharing your beautiful work.
Okay Emile, why do they call you the spy????? Where do you get your inspiration for your work? I'm with Brian, I'd like to see the pics of the flexible shape patterns, right from the beginning, please. Nice stuff. I'll bet the stainless one was a real ***** to get done. John V.O.

I think that torso on the hood could be called modern art. get it displayed. let someone ask what the meaning behint it is. ask them what they think it is and whatever they say toll them they are right. collect the check for a mill.

That is fantastic! Great work and in inspiration for all.

Peter 40 x65cm Emile.
And for those of us who are still mired in the ancient swamp of English units of measurement, that would be 15.75" X 25.59".
A very nice size - are you going to start selling these or displaying them in galleries?
