Gargoyle
Official Cafe Stone Carver
This is 18" tall, 8" relief, (45cm tall, 20cm relief) carved in Indiana limestone. Not quite done yet, but getting there. It will go in the middle of a lintel over the porch of a greystone house in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. Its a restoration project, they had to pretty rebuild the entire facade.
It's based on a piece the client saw on an old building in France, and photos of his daughters face.
Here is where it's going. Not visible in the above photo, but there is a 10" square plug of stone sticking out 4" from the back of the block. (so I started from a 12" thick block of stone).
