Taking shape

Mar 27, 2013 | Drawing, Sculpture

Today, despite the school holidays and the obvious mayhem at home, I was able to have a few quiet hours in the studio. Yesterdays plans and models moving towards a more definite vision with the confidence that I can archive a form along those lines in stone. I can’t wait to get my tools on some rock but until this arctic weather has left us and I am able to work in my outdoor space I am going to carry on plotting in the studio.
