Tennessee marble, 16" long, 7.5" tall. 99% finished, I will just touch up a couple things and accent (scrape a fine white line) to better define the head from the neck. Hand polished for days with diamond pads, final pad 1,200 grit, balls and all. Start tonight planning the next sculpture, something without balls.
Very nice, man!

Ron,
DeleteI already did something with it, I made it, I built this! I don't know what I should do with it. What I ask is what should it do with me, most the time when I look at it I feel good, its calming, thats what it's doing for me, and I think thats enough. Once a group was going to have a show for me, but they never did, I really don't care, I never bugged them or brought it up. I guess I would sell it, but I don't think anyone would offer, I can't sell it for labor, it took hundreds of hours, no one is going to pay many thousands, neither is it worth that, or much of anything really. If you set it on the floor in front of a chair and rub your bare feet over it, it is cool and slick as glass, it really feels good, massages the feet nicely.
