I made the mistake of making my clay model larger than the stone I was going to sculpt. Oops! Somehow I find scaling something down harder than scaling something up. Additionally, the stone had a nasty flaw that prevented me from continuing with my original idea.
In the end, I think the mistakes and the flaws were for the best. The sculpture really wanted to be larger than it would have been with the first stone. I picked up a larger stone and started again. Things have gone much better.
I don't want to reveal it all just yet. So, here's just a taste.

More to come.

My guess is....a replica of Mt. Rushmore. That so looks like George Washington's nose!!! :P
