The Yew Dell Sculpture Show- really late in posting this, only 2 more weeks to see the show....

This sculpture I carved from Alabama Marble, is strapped to the knuckle-boom truck for the trip to Yew Dell Gardens for the 7th Annual Sculpture show. Her name in the show is "Lifting the Veil" but I have since renamed her for th Greek Goddess  Nyx.  She lifts her veil to look at the day and with it truth.
