So we finally got to take our soapstones home on Friday, I decided to give it to my parents as their Christmas present instead of keeping it for myself. It actually didn't take me very long to finish my sculpture since mine was on relief, which means the animal is on the rock and you don't necessarily need to use a saw on your stone, so it only took me a few weeks to finish it but I'm still extremely proud of it and so was my family. No one had seen it except for me and I think that they were surprised at how well mine turned out. I was also surprised at how well it turned out. I especially like the way that the tail of the dragonfly because of the different colors and the small polka dots on it.
