The Jules Verne Project is my experiment of creating a character Illustration and a sculpture.

Very often I get so inspired by people and their life experiences. A year ago I drew Jules Verne portrait for the desktop calendar and this year I used it as a reference to start sculpting. It was my first time working this way and it was challenging. But the little project was really enjoyable! ✨ I like sculpting and feeling the texture of materials by my fingers) Let say, it's a peculiar kind of my own meditation)

Here is аn initial sketch and a final illustration I drew in Photoshop.

My tools for this project:

• plasticine for sculpting

• small kitchen knife

• pencil

• acrylic paints
