Still very much a work in progress and going through the inevitable ‘ugly duckling’ phas
Still very much a work in progress and going through the inevitable ‘ugly duckling’ phase that all of my carvings seem to go through before they’re finished. My ambition with this ‘ode to Grinling Gibbons’ (yes, I know it’s not the most imaginative working title!) is to make it the most dramatically three dimensional necklace I’ve carved yet. I really want the flowers and butterflies to seem to hover, weightless below the wearers collar bone… hopefully you can see this concept slowly emerging through the wood, as rough as it clearly is!! Fingers crossed that I actually get this necklace finished before the Grinling Gibbons: Centuries in the Making exhibition starts at Compton Verney next week! https://www.instagram.com/p/CT7bn46qNBe/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
