As I've posted, it's been a bear trying to find time to sculpt lately. In fact, it had been a week since I last sculpted when I clicked on the lamp to warm up clay today. Even though I'm tired and behind on work, I just felt, today, that I needed to go do some, and I'm glad I did. On the other hand, I think maybe I needed the time away from the sculpt. It all came much easier to me today than it has in a long time.

The features on the reworked face are coming together much better than the first face I sculpted. It's still very rough, but it now has a little life and a little character; the old one was sterile and dead. There are many miles still to go on that particular journey, but at least it feels like I'm traveling in the right direction now. I've also started to make some headway on her feet. Or would that be feetway?

The arms remain my biggest question mark at this point. I keep them off the sculpt most of the time now, because the repeated removing and adding has wreaked havoc on them, and I fear if I keep it up, I will have to take the clay off and re-epoxy the brass tubing onto the wire. I'm still unsure as to whether I can pull off the complex, intertwined hand configuration I'm attempting, but there's only one way to find out, huh?

Anyway, here's where things stand today.
