My Carved Soaps


(Naked Lady on a Couch...bath-sized bar of Ivory soap)
I decided to have a friend photograph them...
which I should have been doing all along...
there are about 27 left.
This is the last Naked Lady on a Couch...
two sold, the other was a birthday present for a friend.

It started when I was a kid...
me and dad at the kitchen table.

I know there are better ways and better things to pour my hours into.

I've been successful at staying away from the soap
for a couple years now.....
but, these pictures that Eric took...
geez....
he made them look so good...
just like I see them...
just like I think about them....
that smell....
that feel....
how the knife eases through the soap.....
finding the surprize within each bar....
looking at these pictures...it's all back.

I've been so good for so long...
maybe a bar or two would be ok................

I'm posting the other views at Artings if you want to really see it.

One by one I'll get them all posted...
and probably eventually give them their own blog
(especially if I find myself cutting again).
