I have always liked adventure and gambling. Stone carving is definitely a challenging gamble. You can break or miscalculate a piece at multiple moments. It keeps things interesting and my attention sharp. During basic blocking, I found the right side of the Modern Athena sculpture, which means the front and the sides of the figure are starting to appear in the block.

I am in the beginning stages of carving a female figure, a Modern Athena, out of a single block marble at the same scale of Michelangelo’s David (approx 17 feet tall). This is the 4 foot version in italian statuario marble. In the age of the MeToo movement, female identity and power have emerged as fronts for social change. The impact of a woman carving such a large sculpture of a female warrior is meant to be inspirational. The Modern Athena sculpture is about not accepting prior limitations, not just for myself, but for everyone.
