After today's session, I decided that Lori's suggestion to stand the piece up on end was a good one, and it is shown that way in the photos above - a nice option in work that does not feature recognizable imagery. I've found in working this stone intuitively that the pace of the work is much faster and more fluid than in following sketches. So, this has been a good breakthrough piece for me. Most of its forms are now nearing completion so that I can move into the refinement phase.
I see a water jet CNC, XYZ stone carving machine in the near future for you. Oh, and a 3D scanner. Stone is looking good.
