Everyone is working relentlessly to get their pieces finished. Ocho put up some lights in the tents so that people can work after dark if they want to. Each day there are fewer faces at breakfast and lunch, and dinner doesn´t happen until 8 so that everyone can get in a full day.
Yesterday Donald got out the diamond chain saw to refine his shape. Silvia and Luis, who had the largest blocks, are continuing to remove stone, but their forms are emerging. Many of the pieces are now standing, and the sculptors are actually sculpting, rather than breaking rock.
It´s a cumbersome process to post photos, but I´ll have more up later today. Thanks to all of you who have posted comments. Everyone enjoys checking them out at the end of the day.
More later.
Great work Marilyn on this wonderful diary. I check in several times a day to see whats new! I am counting down the days and feeling sympathy stress!
