Ariadne

 

The 9 Inch board of limewood from which the carving is made.

The block has been bandsawn from this side and from the top.  Initial roughing out is proceeding.

   

The main shapes of the body are defined.

The piece has now been removed from the block it was glued onto so that the underside can be shaped.

A wooden jig is used to overcome the problems of holding the carving.

Detailing the leg and foot.
