Getting There, or How I Got Into Creating Marble Sculptures..
In 2007 I selected a large pebble from several I have as garden decoration to use as a stand for my headphones. Having had some experience working marble during the renovations of our stone house in the village of Comlekci, [near Bodrum, Turkey] cutting the bottom off the pebble was simple enough, especially as it turned out to be a marble pebble making it relatively easy to cut with an angle grinder fitted with a standard 225mm stone cutting disk.
The headphone stand proved to be both successful and practical and from certain angles and under differing light conditions I could often imagine 'faces' on the rough pebble. Many months later I decided to make another headphone stand for my office only this time I went a little further in making it look more like a head. After two hours with my angle grinder Burma Girl appeared, almost like magic..
