Stone Carving (Another Update)

Stone Carving

I've almost finished this project too, the next one is a candle holder (like I said in the last post). I just need to finish this one off and sandpaper it. I don't really know what this is, but I think it's just another decoration. I did make a little mistake near the bottom because I filed too low, and now it has more a chance of breaking. So now I just need to be more gentle while holding it and putting down, etc.

I finished my harakeke! I softened the inside of the hole with sandpaper, the flat sides, and the edges. I've moved on to a new project, it's the stone in the second photo, in the middle. The first one (candle) I'll be making last and the last one is the harakeke (those three stones were made by our teacher to look at for help).

This is an update from my last post, I have achieved a lot since last Monday (even though you didn't see it last time), and I've almost finished my first project. I just need to add some finishing touches.

(ALMOST DONE!)

This year for our Arts Festival, I'm doing stone carving with Mr Mitchell. I've almost finished my first carving (a koru), and next week I'm moving onto my second project. We work on this every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, periods one and two.
