Less grumpy this evening. I feel thinner & more attractive, and its cos i made a sculpture today while hangin round at the foundry while the big fella got patina'd. I aimed to do that, cos i was expecting to be there about 5 hrs hangin about. The wax room was unoccupied, the wax pots were at the right temp (almost solidified) & i made a little horse. I started out thinking i'd make a lighthorse with rider, like from the war. Then i thought i'll just make a horse & rider. Then it was just a horse. A standing horse half asleep. Then it was a wide awake horse. Then it was on a hill. Then one of the foundry blokes said "nice dog" to get me riled and sure nuff i got fiesty & made it a bucking horse. That works OK for passable, i'll stick with that. He is pretty good from one side, not from the other side, but thats what u get for workin in 3d ;) I left him floating in the tub of green water they got there for cooling waxes in, & i'll fix the other side tomorrow.
But the upshot is i feel thinner & more attractive cos i actually done something. And i probably am thinner & more attractive - there's a long way to go, lets face it. At this stage everything helps.
