The Figure is a standard image for artists. Craft artists often use the figure

as a decorative element or to express emotions and narrative. Often less bound by

classical traditions, the craftsmen's use of the figure is dimensional

and imaginative. Each craftsmen will focus on the emotional issues to their

figurative work and will share the foundation, motivation and discipline for

working with the human figure.
