What do unique sculptures made of wood shavings look like
We made this post with special joy and pride: we present to you an incredibly talented compatriot, the Siberian sculptor Sergei Bobkov and his beautiful and fragile masterpieces.
Sergey Bobkov works as a teacher at a school in the village of Kozhany, Krasnoyarsk Krai.
For several years, Sergey has been creating incredibly realistic sculptures from... wood shavings. They look so natural that it's hard to believe that they are made of wood.
Sergey himself talks about his art like this: "I'm not interested at all in doing what everyone knows how to do. But to create something unusual is another matter, it inspires."
The master studies the anatomy of the animal and its habits for several months before starting a new sculpture. Look, because the fur of animals turns out with real villi, and the feathers are really light and weightless!
It takes from six months to produce one masterpiece with many hours of daily work. And his "production" technology is so unique that the artist managed to get a patent for making sculptures from sawdust.
During his life Sergey managed to try to do a lot of things with his own hands: he has experience in weaving from vines, and ceramic work, and even creating furniture. But he managed to create really unusual and extraordinary objects, oddly enough, from wood waste.
Sergei's art is not for sale: he was offered 17 thousand dollars for the eagle sculpture, but the master refused. He prefers to keep a complete collection of works in his studio.
