Laurent Clerc As An Old Man

 Our main character is Laurent Clerc as an old man. Our play is going to open with Laurent sitting in his living room in Hartford, CT lamenting how the oral traditionalists are trashing American Sign Language. He is not happy. But he is an old man and old men are seldom happy, maybe grumpy with some optimism. 

But before we go any further we need a Laurent Clerc head. So here is the beginning of the head after 1 hour. Does not seem like much but watch it grow into his likeness, hopefully. 

Going to try a paper mache under structure and then going to put a clay on the top of that for detail. Hopefully.
