I was hoping to make him someone they could consult with, confide in, or be counseled by, or just in general relate to, rather than feeling he was judging them.What a compelling gaze. I predict that over the years there will be many references by students to being judged by those eyes.
Limestone, not marble. Marble suffers from the freeze-thaw cycles here, but limestone holds up fine. I will give it a waterproofing (a permeable/breathable high quality product). That lasts perhaps 3 years. The stone is fresh quarried, so still soft (after 180 million or so years sitting in the ground), it will harden up over the next few years.Since your marble sculpture will be installed outdoors, what measures will be taken to protect the fine detail in your work from the mild acidity of the rain and Chicago atmosphere?
I opened his eyes this morning. Drank 3 cups of coffee first to steady my hands...
