Beauty Girl

My current project, "Beauty Girl", is a dry stone sculpture of a reclining female figure.  It's being constructed on the grounds of a residence in Connecticut.
Measurements from my 1/12th scale, clay model were transferred to a movable guide frame.

 Weights on lines determine the points that define the form. Vertically-set fieldstone is fashioned into the four blankets that robe the figure. Horizontally laid, carved marble slabs make up the figure's exposed portions. When finished, the sculpture will be 36' long x 14' wide x 5' 6" high.
