Second week of work done on marble.
In this round the block began to take shape a little, but especially so. The most 'hard and' start without ever having been chiselled, the effort seems pointless and unnecessary. But now, with a little 'perseverance, I begin to see some results: the hand self-training to sustain the effort smartellando, I am learning to use the three different types of chisel (chisel, chisel and beams) and to control the shot wad. Incredibly, it can 'expressions of sensitivity' also using a tow from a kilo on the marble more 'hit and' reckless, more 'work and' raw!
Somehow I managed to find the volume of the head I'm working on the step waiting for me next week and 'to begin to model the subtle details (nose, eyes and mouth).
Every day after work, photograph the result, just to cover the progression and see how long it takes to carry out work only chisel and mallet, not with machines that will use compressed air 'more' below.

Nose to November 30:
Nose to December 1:
Nose to 2 December (after about 4 hours):
State labor last week after two days of dedication:
State of work yesterday, after five days of dedication:

I must say that this training on the stone is making me understand once more 'the greatness of certain artists such as Michelangelo and Phidias, but also the need' who drove the authors of the rock carvings: relations with the stone 's only a matter of technique, and' a matter of attraction towards the matter, force and energy that is developed with something that can not be 'scratched with a fingernail, and that asks to be dealt with discipline and confrontation.
Well, one thing to Conan the Barbarian medieval miniatures! :)
