It 'a bit' that blog post: I am quite taken by the Academy courses, then there 'and fortunately it was Christmas' past in a hurry, then the new prof. Sculpture with which we are starting to get acquainted and then another little 'things that will mature in the coming months.
Most of the time I spent on three jobs for three different courses: Techniques Marble, casting techniques and techniques of sculpture. The block of marble that I received last November is increasingly 'taking human form: this piece of stone has been chiseled by hand, a subsequent treatment with a chisel and heavy electric and, ultimately, file a delicate labor: because I do not trust more 'to chisel on facial features with mallet and irons, I proceed using a small rasp to shape the details and modulate the shadows.

Nose and 'finally erupted, with his little grace, and soon will open his eyes. But there is no 'fast. I work on the marble has imposed a certain discipline of slow: no need to rush on stone and simply remove brutally. The slow work serves to identify the planes as if peeling an orange with a thousand skins: they appear gradually on their own, the more 'guess how much more' look left, without too many calculations, and one the next.
I proceed by removing parts of the marble where the excesses are evident, but I work in spots, constantly-moving piece and sometimes I stop and look at the whole. Certainly not produce a work symmetrical and precise: I like that depending on the point you see the picture that is appearing, if they have a different view.
