Very nice Ellen. Looks like another one of those projects that has been around for a while but with few comments.

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. Very classy.

was it inspired by a font, or ornament set – perhaps subconsciously?

Love the lines and dimension.

I was thinking that too: how do you do that??? And then you answered it – grinder, scraper, sandpaper… now, doesn’t that SOUND simple!
beautiful design and beautifully created.
my hat is off to you!

Thanks so much for the feedback! I am trying my hand at limestone and wood. As soon as this one is complete, of course, I will ask for feedback.

Ellen, this is a fabulous piece in both design and execution. Brava!

Ellen’s sculptures are like listening to a great jazz musician, who knows how to get every nuance of every note, out of their instrument, expertly! Her grinder, scraper, and sandpaper are her instruments. Her sculptures are the music. You have a fan!!

I really like it. The heart is sort of like the weeping heart found in early American and Indian designs.
