Face Made of Hands___by Patrick Arrasmith

Hands,
Wrists,
Forearms borne,
Gentle grip,
Or clenching hard,
Fingered lips a mouth surround,
All to form a face made of hands.

Completely unadorned.

And Let Stravinsky's music fill my ears".

Simple technique, simple forms, beautifully executed.

Torso v2 ____ by Tecciztecatl

A chunk of stone, much like a puppy at a pound, awaits the right person to claim it
as his own. The sculptor, with chisel at the ready, begins the take away process.
Unlike those that work in clay, material removed cannot be replaced. His vision, hidden in that chunk of ordinary rock, seeks revelation. He is able to brush aside the veil of stone and bring to our eyes a creation, once only seen the minds eye of the artist who works this magic in stone.
