great moments in sculpture #478

work begins on "the peg-leg project"


the chainsaw was a big hit. so was corey's dreadlock protective covering.

Over the first several weeks of the semester I watched at least 3 students as they held a power tool for the first time. They literally trembled as they prepared to pull the trigger. One student did her best to avoid using the chainsaw. When she finally gathered her strength and used it to carve on her project she loved it so much she asked her parents to buy her one. Probably not what you'd expect to hear from your college aged daughter.
I maintain that we have more fun in Sculpture than in any other area. I mean, come on.......we have chainsaws.
