A little idea

As I was randomly looking at pictures of sculptures recently I stumbled upon this. It's by French artist, Albert Bartolome who typically made funerary sculpture and monuments. Technically it's an impressive sculpture and all that, but what I thought was neat was the moss growing all over one side of the figure.

I've been experimenting lately with different finishes to try to find ones I really like and I thought the moss and the black blobs and streaks (which might be mold, I'm not sure) give this sculpture a pretty cool look. I  might not implement that idea on any of the works I'm planning for the near future, but it's an idea that's going to be filed away for the future.
