Another Reading girl update



I have worked on her right hand and arm today. Having the maquette in her lap helps me to see the detail of the fingers.


This is the side view of the sculpture. She stills needs a great deal of refining....



I am working out the earthwork and the plantings for the lower half of the sculpture. I have placed pins where the plants will go. The plants will grow 4 -6" high and fill the area between the berm and the sculpture. As the location for the sculpture is
shady I will be using Vinca Minor for the planting. The particular variety I have selected is called Atropupurpea and has a purple bloom and has a more prostrate form than other varieties of vinca minor.
