Clive Cooper: Watermelon Sculptor!

An artist has to find expression, whatever be the medium. Art enthusiast, and now rather well known sculptor Clive Cooper makes his living as a full-time government clerk out of Vancouver, Canada, where he pursues sculpting as a hobby and as a means to supplement his income by providing his sculptures for weddings and parties. Halloween as one would expect, is always a busy time for him. Working with a remarkably difficult and ephemeral medium, he makes short work of it. Take a look.

I always wondered how much labour would go into making, say a sand sculpture..and now seeing this..its a very different spirit of the art world to make work with great effort fully knowing that it will all be destroyed very very soon.

As he’s talented and industrious, Clive has no place in government. I hope his well-deserved progression to full-time steadily employed professional artist is quick and easy.
