Lazy Days

Yesterday was one of those testing days, as much as I tried, my efforts on shaping the stone by the end of the day had only produced dust and a few stone chipping's. In a way I needed a day like that to help me slow down and look closely at how the sculpture was developing. Today however was more successful and I am pleased with how it's taking shape. I've lowered the stone again and brought it back out into the natural light to highlight al those lumps and bumps! I'm looking forward to polishing this Portland up however I'm already thinking that the lower half will be textured with some nice big punch marks!
