White Out!

The beginning of a new carving has been progressing well despite being hampered slightly by the persistent rain today. Resorting to cutting the 1m block of Portland limestone indoors means that so much dust is being thrown up and visibility is poor! I am carving a scaled version of one of the small 'hand - held' axe heads. Interestingly, when changing the scale of one of your carvings into a bigger version, the presence and even the interpretation can change instantly. The work may loose some of its original intention from the model however I'm sure over the course of the next few days working on it and as the dust settles, the purpose and meaning will become a lot clearer!
