This taiji inspired sculpture is based on a squatting move that I can not do because of Achilles issues. It is sort of a talisman… perhaps some day I will have strong heels. “Taiji” is a different spelling for T’ai Chi which is a martial art that uses the mind to coordinate soft, flowing movements with breath.
The stone had some gold and gray veining. It had metal flecks in it that made it a bit hard to carve at times and hard on the tools.
