Happy Birthday, Yaany

We remember you with love.  You would have been nine today.  Mimi and you are the ones we are doing the sculpture for.

The shape's becoming clearer

Jeanie has been carving solidly yesterday and today.  The shape is becoming clearer day by day.

Here are two pictures taken today.

More filing work

A lot of filing work in the last couple of days.  The changes are smaller now.  The thinking time longer and harder.

First day of filing

Had a hard day of filing today.  This is how the sculpture looks now, with the faces just taking shape.

Oh yes.  We bought a gazebo the other day so now I should be able to carve on wet days.

The backside

The last post but one showed progress from trhe front of the sculpture.  This sequence shows the changes from the back.
