Description of work: The sculpture that I'm creating is untitled at the moment the name will come to me as I work on the sculpture. The sculpture is going to carved from a 8'x 4'x 2' 7,000lb block of lime stone and will be of a woman figure standing dignified,strong,elegant and beautiful. Her hair and garments will look as they are blowing in the wind. I put a photo of a drawing it is not very good but you can see how the peice will flow. I will also be putting up photos as she emerges from the raw block of stone. You can also follow me on facebook.
