not the best way to start the week

sometimes you’ve got to take the decision to either abandon ship or keep going, but the surgery is looking quite promising, so on we go.

time to get it back to my workshop at home where the light is great.


Six hours and a lot of aching muscles later

didn’t have my camera after yesterday’s session so started the day with a photo op.

five hours and two bags of stone rubble later…


Getting Started

I have chosen the stone and decided the subject and spent the afternoon getting the feel for the shapes by carving a pair of hands from a foam block.

The stone is chlorite, which i have not used before but is reckoned to be nicely behaved and polishes to a deep black.

A day later the rubble sacks are filling up.
