Week six...spent part of the studio time fixing (but not finishing my botched ear). I also added eyes. To help with the consistency of shape, I dug holes in granny's head and filled in the space with glass marbles. The marbles don't melt during the baking/curing process.
Week 4. Coming along. Something that is odd about sculpture is that it's easy to go from a point where forward progress is happening quickly to suddenly finding yourself working on a small object or minute details for hours. Solid work that yields next to nothing in terms of noticeable results. For instance, I have one decent looking ear, but totally dicked it in terms of placement and size of the opposite side. Aargh.
