Peter was happy to polish off the scarecrow aka: Farmer Jack this afternoon. The sculpture looks fabulous! Peter will now head over to continue work on the Hazelnut Inn while we finish assembling and painting the last of the signs for Vala’s Pumpkin Patch. Most of the signs are now ready for final paint with only two more to be assembled.
The scarecrow
Peter has been very busy the last few days sculpting ‘Jack - the farmer’, a scarecrow mascot for the Harvest Barn sign. The scarecrow is extremely detailed from head to toe. There’s a few details yet to sculpt including his collar and cuffs, the top of his hat, and the tall stack of mini donuts!
Getting better every day!
As the painting crew layer the colours on the Vala’s Pumpkin Patch signs they get more spectacular by the hour. They are still working with base colours and have yet to start the aging and glazing process which will take these beauties over the top. We talked with the shipping company today and it is hard to believe that in about three weeks these two signs along with the many others in progress will be on their way to Nebraska.
