'''Foot Young''' is a [[Queensland-Australia]]-based artist who has been carving marble from the Chillago region for forty years.  He sailed the oceans for twenty years and much of his work is marine oriented. However there is a remarkable diversity as well, with realistic human figures from miniature to life sized and over, surrealism, stylized works, and some with abstraction.
 
 
His work - primarily in marble and bronze [[sculpture]]  - but he also produces a good range of jewellery in precious metals, micro sculptures as he calls them. Although originals are rarely available, most of his art is offered in reproductions in a cast marble medium which he has perfected over decades and which can be produced in several coloured mediums.
 
 
Foot has produced over his forty year career several hundred sculptures ranging from micro sizes up to monumental, one of the largest being the life sized Dugong at the Airlie Beach Lagoon done in the local Whitsunday black marble for the Australian 2001 Centenary of Federation. Another large piece is the 2.4 metre Humpback Whale Breaching in white marble which stands outside of his gallery on Hamilton Island.  There is another smaller gallery at Airlie Beach, and his work can also be found at a few other galleries in Australia and the U.S.
 
 
He has also produced two instructional DVDs available from his website, as well as a free online treatise on modelled sculpture using modern techniques and materials.

About this template

This template is used to identify a stub about an Australian sculptor. It uses {{asbox}}, which is a meta-template designed to ease the process of creating and maintaining stub templates.

Usage

Typing {{Australia-sculptor-stub}} produces the message shown at the beginning, and adds the article to the following category:

General information

This is a stub template. A brief explanation of these templates follows; for full details please consult Wikipedia:Stub.

What is a stub?

A stub is an article containing only a few sentences of text which is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject.

How is a stub identified?

  • If possible, try to find the most appropriate stub template for the article. A full list can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/List of stubs.
  • More than one stub template may be used, if necessary, though no more than four should be used on any article.
  • Place a stub template at the very end of the article, after the "External links" section, any navigation templates, and the category tags. As usual, templates are added by including their name inside double braces, e.g. {{stub}}.

Further information

Further information can be found at:

New stub templates and categories (collectively "stub types") should not be created without prior proposal at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. This allows for the proper coordination of all stub types across Wikipedia, and for the checking of any new stub type for possible problems prior to its creation.
