I am in love with Sign Language. Ever since I was a little girl I have loved this language. It has led me to my fascination and slight obsession with hands. I have an ever growing collection of hands. I was inspired by the website www.skulladay.com and decided I needed to start my own 365 day project. It took me awhile to get the nerve up to start but I thought the best day to begin would be on my 30th birthday so thanks for joining me on this long and wild journey.

SOOOOO Long O
In honor of Oprah's last show, I made a hand looking like the letter O in ASL. This was made from some type of pipe. I had this idea before the project began and had to make it today for the last show of Oprah. I watched it, and I must say, I thought it was kind of lame. All she did was talk. Boring. Oh well, she will be missed. I made cut this hand entirely on the table saw, with a bit of hand sawing after 2 other tries making incorrect cuts and cutting the thumb too short.
