Here are the steps in making a lady bug from a brick.
The first picture is a full brick. Next the rough out shape. Then the shape gets finished.

A few details and accents and it is ready to have the finish applied.

What do you think?

Oh yea, they are made with a 4 inch diamond grinding wheel, ground by moving the grinder over the brick.

In this case, the brick is over 100 years old. It came from my chimney of my house which was built in 1901.

So, please give my latest work a comment or your thoughts.

Do not worry about hurting my feelings.

I was going for a folks art look. Also trying for a certain price point. What would you say this would sell for at the flea market in front of the American Visionary Art Museum on Saturday June 11, 2011.

Thanks
