An update on the new sculpture. Looks like the finished sculpture will top out at about 800 lbs. So far it looks like I have knocked off about 1000 lbs of stone (420 lbs in the first load to the dump. Now have a larger pile to go to the dump).

 The design is interconnected circles, tentatively named The Sound of Joy.  When experiencing Joy (the emotion) it starts small then springs to new heights & different directions encompassing any surrounding space.   Then
slowly it contracts to begin the process all over again.

The design flows (in front view) from the lower right circles around to the left & goes inside the first circle &
connects to the second (middle) circle. The second circle rears up comes down & connects to the third
(largest circle – in the back) circle. The large circle arches over the second circle &
comes to rest on the left side of the front view.

Finished Sculpture will be 24" x 24" x 36" tall.  Mounted on an 18" x 18" x 24"t pedestal will make the
sculpture/pedestal combination 18" x 18" x 60" tall & weigh in at 1600 lbs approx.
