Wednesday in NY

Jimmy's project this afternoon was to sculpt a torso from a live model.
This sculpture took him 2 hours.
I love it.

This evening Philippe invited the class visit his home workshop.
Amazing, inspiring, fun!

Honeoye, NY Workshop

Jim is enjoying (very much) a week long workshop with Philippe Faraut in Honeoye, NY. This was today's project. Nice job, Jimmy!

Tiger Grouting

Tiger's belly is grouted.

Tiger's back is grouted.

Tiger gets a facial with grout.

Making Waves

I have three projects in progress
and a fourth design already in mind.

This morning I am cutting and placing glass waves,
my first experience cutting glass shapes.
I have three band aids on my hands so far....

Tiger Grooming

Tiger likes to get brushed.
Jim is cleaning the thinset off the tiles to make the tiger sparkle.

Last Tiger Tile

The last glass tile gets placed Friday night.
How many tiles are on the tiger?
Hopefully, we will never have to answer that question!

Fireworks

Fireworks on the 4th of July.
Happy Holiday!

Tiger Paws

Tiger is having his "nails done" on the 4th of July.

Patio Table

I used Ceramic Tiles,
it turned out nice for my first try at furniture.

Sunday Morning in June

I couldn't resist this shot of the Garden Lady with the Iris blooming along side her.
As I was getting ready to shot the photo, a person drove into the parking lot and
asked if she could take a picture of our lady, too.
She does attract some attention from folks driving by.
