Inspired Artist9/5/2018 The artist I chose is a sculptor named Guy Van Leemput. He works with porcelain to create containers like bowls based on geometry. His techniques in the beginning was painting white porcelain slip onto balloons to create bowls. The bowls turn out to look fragile and thin along with translucent. He creates these bowls with a variety of textures which he found inspiration for in nature. I am inspired by his artwork because of the use of light and shadow for the bowls along with the variety of textures designed into the bowls. The look of the bowls as well are to me very original and like nothing I have seen before. They give off a paper look which draws me into the sculpture. Guy is from Belgium and started studying mathematics at the university of Leuven and taught ceramics in his free hours. Around the year of 2001, he decided to follow his passion and no longer was a teacher for mathematics, but for sculpture. There is no website for this artist.
