This Term I have been working on a passion project (Stone Carving). I have been trying to make a Koru but, I always try I break it. I have also been planning what I am going to make for my Oamaru Stone Carving. I drew a Moari fish hook with some islander designs in it. It is awesome that I am working on stone carving but it is surprisingly hard. Here is some of my planning (Unfinished).
I think that I am going to have a blast at stone carving. It is sometimes frustrating that because it takes a long time to finish but I know at the end it will work out. :)
Hello Lasa!
ReplyDeleteI am impressed at the commitment you showed at the end of the day to get your blog post up. You offered some great information and I like how you told us some of your experiences with stone carving.
If you stick with it, and do your best every time, I am sure you will be able to create a great piece of stone art.
What do you find most difficult about the carving? I find that using the chisel and mallet is tricky to knock off the right pieces so it doesn't break.
