Celestial Reverent Family by Richard Arfsten

A religious symbol on another planet that I remembered from my dream time travels with Flash Gordon, my childhood hero.

This might make a nice logo for a nondenominational religious society.

Maquettes also make fine desk top sculpture and will come with a stone base to sit on.

The major value in these pieces is the maquette aspect. The maquette is a three-dimensional model or blueprint that works to show that the design is accurate and can be built larger. A metal fabricator measures off of it to make the patterns to build from, just like a tailor uses your measurements to make your clothes. When presenting ideas to a client for consideration most sculptors submit a concept drawing on a piece of paper. A maquette is the actual sculpture in miniature. When you lift it up to view at eye level it will depict the sculpture exactly as it will be seen in real life as if you were walking up to and around it.
