Gargoyle
Official Cafe Stone Carver
Grappa can do double duty- strip paint, prep steel for working, or drink it. But I have some good stuff...I agree with Mike C's assesment..... too much like raw alcohol taste to me....
Here's another Italian marble relief carving. Nice foliage, a lot of movement and life to it. I like the lions face, but the mane is rather weathered and worn down. The scoop of the wing also has a good shadow. The concave top to the shield gives the illusion of greater depth than there actually is; it's a rather shallow relief.
Odd thing is, this is the lion of St. Marks, the symbol of Venice, but I shot this photo in Florence.
