Although my progress is slow I am getting there. As you can see from the comparison there has been a reasonable amount of progress. I think the name of this particular piece of greenstone is Kakotea. Forgive me if I am wrong. I am trying to teach myself the differences of greenstone in New Zealand. The photo background on the right shows the carving sitting on a Brisbane river nodule.
It has been a long time since I have worked on this piece of Pounamu. I've spent the last few days shaping it. I believe I am not far off of going through the sanding process. Exciting stuff!!! This will also be my first Pounamu carving.
I've included the early stage (right),which I have placed on here before to refresh your memory. As you can see I have made some changes above.
This is my second day working on this piece of Pounamu(greenstone, NZ Jade). I have enjoyed todays progress. I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
