How I carved a marble head without a model | Stone carving process

This video shows my process of carving a sculpture in marble through the direct carving method. The result you see at the end is not final as the sculpture will undergo a "finishing touch" that I will reveal soon.

Wow! What a great video, showing the progression of a sculpture coming alive. And the style of the making of the video made it enjoyable to watch, and listen to. Thank you, Athar!

I know this video is a year old now but I just recently discovered this channel and it is such a beautiful discovery since stone cutting/sculpture making is becoming rare outside of specialised fields of work and even rarer are there channels showcasing it keep up the good work good sir

This was super interesting to watch. We used it to show our kids what it looks like to carve in stone after a homeschool art history lesson on Michelangelo. Thanks for sharing your work!

Prachtig! Het is zo rustgevend om je aan het werk te zien, Athar!

So Beautiful, may be an odd comment but I’d like to point out the personality you threw into the video itself, shows you take time with anything that could be influenced by your own artistry! Im still currently working with wood, but I cannot wait to try my hand sculpting with marble

Wow, this is something of a lost art - Yes you've got newer tools, but extremely interesting to watch. Thanks for sharing!

When I ser you craft your art, I can't help but imagine the immense dedication and efforts that our ancestors put into this craft. Using their more rudimentary tools, they also searched for the beauty within the rock, the trait that unites us.

Wonderful video. I am looking forward to the next part.

Your videos got me into carving. I just started a few months ago and I love it so much! I am obsessed. Although I am a little old (almost 40), I hope to one day be as good as you.

Not at all saying this is easy, but how much time would you say you save using the modern powered tools you have access to? I’m very fascinated by this art form, and this piece is beautiful!

Wow, amazing work, I just found your channel today & really looking forward to watching more of your videos, I can’t afford to go & I am a little too settled down to go to the sculpting school that I’d like to, so thank you for taking the time & effort to make these videos
