The process…

This question occured to me today as I was looking at the unicorn gargoyle. I noticed it’s mane, tail, beard, and feathering on the legs all look like oak leaves (an effect I highly enjoy the more I look at it). Then I looked around at all the other sculpture I have that are done by you. This might be too general of a question, but how do you decide what to do for a sculpture? Like on the unicorn sculpture, oak leaves would not have been something I would have thought went well with the theme, but it works and is integrated so effortlessly into the piece. How do you decide things like that when you are coming up with a new sculpture?

…oh. And one other question. I was so impressed with the unicorn gargoyle, I am going to try to collect more of the other gargoyles (It is quickly becoming one of my more favorite pieces). Is there a chance we might see more gargoyles in the future?

I wanted these gargoyles to have some architectural qualities that made them seem as if they were from the past.
How do I decide things.. uh .. not sure, exactly, but I have a very firm idea of the sculpture I want to end up with when I start something. Sometimes it works out, sometimes not. I throw out LOTS of designs, and I often do many versions of the same thing!
I don’t plan to do any more gargoyles, however we have a few more stone finish things that we may make in the future.
