{"Id":7853,"Name":"Anil Surendran","Biography":"\u003Cp\u003EI sculpt in the Realist tradition. I graduated from the three year Florence Academy of Art program that focused on classical drawing techniques in charcoal and sculpting in the tradition of the older masters.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EPrior to that I spent about 6 years attending various workshops world wide including many with Philippe Faraut and learning the essential skills. My heart was still craving the sculptures of the 15th century and I made the decision to train further in Florence.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe thought process prior to sculpting a portrait or figure I find the most creative aspect. How does the person see himself or herself? How do I view them? Then, chemistry happens whilst sculpting and getting to know the person.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EI gravitate towards the essence of the person staying true to nature in what they offer me.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EMy other job as a doctor gives me a good insight into emotions at play and a sound understanding of anatomy. As a sculptor, anatomy is essential and it\u0026rsquo;s vital for me to understand the variations displayed in the subject before representing them. It\u0026rsquo;s always a struggle of how much to let go and how much to represent.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EPlease feel free to check my video link on my website \u003Cu\u003E\u003Cspan style=\u0022color: #000120;\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https://anil-sculptor.com/\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003Ewww.anil-sculptor.com\u003C/a\u003E\u003C/span\u003E\u003C/u\u003E to understand me as a sculptor.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C/p\u003E","Awards":null,"HasAlbums":false,"HasPortraits":false,"HasRelationships":false,"HasArticles":false,"HasDepictedPlaces":false,"HasLetters":false,"HasLibraryItems":false,"HasProducts":false,"HasSignatures":false,"HasVideos":false,"HasMapLocations":false,"TotalArtworks":15}
