The idea from John from Starnberg:

I want a statue of a Buddha made of carved hardwood. It should be about 90 cm tall and draw on a set of pictures I will provide. All Buddha's I know are male and Asian. This one can be female and African, BUT must still capture essential facial expressions and hand gestures.

The sculpture is beautiful, the detail amazing. For me at least, there is magic in her presence and in the suggestion of an African female Buddha.

Dear John,

yes, I took a slow move to give the material time to dry up,and now I have started working it out.

The pictures presented are part of the preliminary work process showing just the general proportion before I start working on the fine details to make it more light with artistic details.

You can give comment on the proportion as it is.

Nice time.

Naftal.

John 20 Apr 2016 9:03 am
The proportions look good. I am also glad to hear you are thinking about the drying of the wood.
Naftal Mageto Momanyi 17 Jun 2016 8:49 am
The photos I sent, are the final detailing of the Buddha sculpture, but the sanding and polishing was not yet done by the time I took the photos

however, am on the process doing the polishing to finish the sculpture completely today.

Naftal Mageto Momanyi 24 Jun 2016 3:27 pm
Dear John,

the photos represent the polished and therefore fully completed Buddha sculpture in OLIVE WOOD.

The sculpture is now ready for a delivery.

About Naftal Mageto Momanyi

Born in 1961, Naftal Mageto Momanyi am a self taught artist who’s love for fine art books through the Kenya National Library services and
long term association with professional art educators in East Africa turned my talent into an intellectual gear that enables me to create superlative works of intellectual artistic merit.Among major artistic events I have participated includes:an exhibition of contemporary East African Art at The Commonwealth Institute in London in 1984,the Kenya- Canada cultural exchange festival in 1986,and the 1994 traveling exhibition in 20 cities across the western Canada region.I was also the facilitator in the 1994 international sculptors festival, held in Weyburn Saskatchewan during my 6 Months residency in Canada.The inspiration for my art springs from the compelling desire to communicate my emotional experiences to the people using artistic images as a symbolic language through which information is conveyed based on topical themes. I create in multiple techniques ranging from realistic to abstract art forms and also carve portraits in stone. My works are original and the ability to create from a given story is my long time experience. Analytical detailing in form and subject contents aimed at emphasizing the dominance of a particular feeling in
the physical character of a sculpture is a crucial aspect in my work plan. I use a variety of stones, wood and casting.
