pumice heads
another monday.. a photo of two of the pumice heads I carve.. the larger one still being worked on. I like to keep the original shape of the pumice as much as possible. and the green lips. hmm… often I do the lips a soft wash of pink/brown but every now and then like a bit of drama.
GRAY MORNING HERE.. HAVE HAD SOME AWESOME WEATHER THO.. WENT TO BEACH SUNDAY. GOOD FOR THE SOUL. NO WIND. THE SEA WHISPERING AND THE SKY A BLUE WITHOUT A NAME.
AM BACK TO CARVING FACES. USE LARGE PUMICE. SOFT AND EASY TO CARVE IN ONE SENSE BUT THE DIFFERENT TEXTURES AND SHAPES ARE A CHALLENGE.. lOVE IT. NO PLAN THEY SEEM TO BE THERE WAITING TO BE BOUGHT OUT. PICS LATER.
