 In keeping with they day, I thought I would post my latest piece in progress. I have to give a shout out to Frank Castiglione, whose recent comment on my work inspired this piece. This is my first piece that I actually worked on in my own workshop. I still have to clean it up with acid, pick a patina and make a framing decision, but here it is up to this point. Eric  I,m glad it brought back

I,m glad it brought back some good memories Frank. I didn't realize how difficult the hands would be until I was too far into the project. They were a challenge. » reply |

I Hear Ya
Hi Eric,
You took on quite a challenge making hands. I like the ruggedness of the hands while portraying reverence. It actually reminds me of a Brother Rago, a man I knew that was the most rugged appearing person you could imagine. At the same time he was truly a gentle servant of God.His voice was at least an octave below normal but only kind words left his lips.Thanks, Eric, you brought back some good memories.
Frank
