Sculptural progress

One of the things I really wanted to do this summer was to get a few concrete sculptures done. I had the giant hand and a crow partly constructed and also bits and pieces of a bench.

Well now, thanks to the cooler weather I am making great progress to that end. I have one more solid evening to go working on the hand and about an hour of wire end clipping to do on the bench and crow, plus a good, hard, looking it over session.

Next week I should be able to get them concreted. That is a huge job, but the weather is looking favorable. In other words, no rain or hot weather is forecast! So make hay while the sun is shining or "pour" cement while the weather is good. Not that I pour anything. It'll be me, some sand, Portland cement, water, a wheel barrow and a hoe. Good times!

Hard work, but certainly I'll find some joy!
