Soap Carving

ARTIST STATEMENT:
When assigned this project I was on a time crunch and thought It was possible to carve two pigs out of soap along with having lots of detail! I thought this was possible because in the fourth grade I carved a “boat” out of soap, but the boat was really just soap hollowed out. This project I have to say was the most time consuming, patience testing project yet. There came times where I wanted to throw my soap across the room and forfeit the on going struggle of soap carving. After my project ended I had blisters on my fingers from the carving tools and I had to need to be dirty from that point on because of my want to never see soap again!!
