1. I love that piece!

Is it from Rome or newer?

I sculpt bas reliefs.

3. Thank you so much, my dear Goddessartist!

I believe this is a plaster (?) copy of an ancient bas relief. It's based on a myth which I no longer remember. I bought it from a catalog that carried copies of famous and not-so-famous pieces.

It would be great to see your work!

5. Yes I've seen it before but not the casting.

I'll upload more art today or tomorrow in the Artist forum! I posted an older 2d piece the other day.

4. You are too kind, and I thank you so much, my dear Diamond_Dog!

Seems to me that I've posted photos of this particular piece before. It's been a while!

I was using my new lens, the 12--45mm. And I was having fun, with the color and its position on the wall.

7. What's so cool about that

Is how the shadows change depending on where you stand, or the time of day.

Very interesting!

9. You got that right, my dear justaprogressive!

I love the sense of motion that this bas relief shows.
