Whitewitch because you know about fold forming and also because today is suppose to be jewelry day i don't feel bad showing these to you... i'm trying to conquer this art from... but what i really like is beating the silver with a hammer for hours and hours...
the first image was actually my first attempt it came out the way i wanted but its so sharp that no one could wear it.. the others are more reasonable attempts... after the second one which is almost 4oz of silver i have changed to copper to lean my craft... thanks for knowing about fold forming, i don't have anyone here that knows or cares what about what I'm trying to learn... ... keep smiling

Nice pieces. I first learned of a more crude form of folding. WWII watch sailors would hit a silver quarter with a spoon , turning and tapping as they watched. Then they would then carve out the center, ending up with a ring that had the united states and the year on the inside rim. I tried w a new quarter but the copper is really hard.

Statues, let alone animal statues or sculpture are not in my usual "sight line". Here are some I found - most from this week.
One bee in a group of sculpted bees in Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens
Metal caterpillar or centipede? in a garden on Mt. Desert Island, ME
Musical friend's one eyed blue frog
Been on a rock in mother-in-law's community park for years and years.
Grandson spied this one (he loves these photo scavenger hunts)
I hate snakes, but had to admit this "statue" was unique and fit right into this person's garden.
