Cat’s Eye Carving

Highnam Court Spring Fair.

I will be taking part in the mini stone carving event set in the beautiful surroundings of Highnam Court, Gloucestershire, on the 24th and 25th April 2010.

This is the clay model I will be working from!

The carvings will be auctioned off on Sunday afternoon in aid of Gloucester Cathedral and The Pied Piper appeal.

There are many more attractions, Wood carving, a Medieaval Village, Craft stalls, live music and entertainment, classic cars and much much more.

Come along, the weather forcast is good, and you never know, you may win one of the carvings! There will be about 10 of us carving so the range of carvings should be quite broad.

For more information, visit, www.highnamcourtspringfair.co.uk

Hope to see you there!

Carving of a Siren on the Rocks

Some of you may have seen this carving as a work in progress during last Summer, well here she is!

She is carved from Portland limestone and stands just over 2ft high by 7″ square.

The wave forms that have become a theme in my carvings are something that I am going to explore further in my next carvings.

Wave carving.

Here are the photos of the finished carving. Due to a fault in the stone, I removed about 6″ off the bottom of the block.

It is sanded to a very fine finish. I hope you like it.
