"The Release from Deception,"
Carved from a single block of marble, it depicts a fisherman being released from netting by an angel, allegorical to the man being liberated from his sins.
So intricate was the work that 18th-century philosopher Giangiuseppe Origlia described it as “the last and most trying test to which sculpture in marble can aspire.”
Queirolo worked alone on his magnum opus, without an assistant or even a workshop. Even other sculptors refused to touch the delicate net in case it broke into pieces in their hands.
The masterpiece is housed at the Sansevero Chapel in Naples, with several other miracles of marble. Namely, "The Veiled Christ" (1753) by Giuseppe Sanmartino and "The Veiled Truth" (1750) by Antonio Corradini.
Francesco Queirolo (1752-1759)

Ok, I did some review of my fav carving channels' videos, and tried a different approach to the initial image transfer and the carving, much better results!!
Vash's hair was a WHOLE THING xD
I'm still waiting on the bigger pieces of rubber and have to print off a larger image, but all going well, I'll be trying my first big stamp of one of @shelternmberone 's Vash pieces next weekend! Might even do a two-colour print of it if it comes out well <3

A while ago I made some little stamps of my crested geckos footprints. I have been putting them on a lot of letters and journals ever since! 😅

'Caligula Ring'
A sapphire Hololith (a ring carved from a single stone), one of the missing Arundel and Marlborough gems, once catalogued as belonging to the Emperor Caligula.
The 2,000-year-old sky-blue hololith has a face believed to be that of fourth wife Caesonia engraved into the bezel.

My larger eraser blocks finally arrives, and I can finally take another crack at @shelternmberone 's Vash designs <3
A couple of errors, but really happy with it! Tomorrow I have some water- and oil-based lino/relief printing inks and tools arriving, so I'll share how the carving looks with those inks compared to the basic inkpad I've been using so far :D

"Her heart is made of flames like a star, her mind is made of poetry, her body is made like art.. like a hand carving made from the utmost care, she's rare, unique, and neat. She is like a priceless painting, every brush stroke of her life pure genius.. she's a princess, every heartbeat of hers timeless like classical music. If she gives you love then don't abuse it.."
She's rare and beautiful like nothing you could ever imagine - eUë
