                  Specimen #04002, 5/30/2001 
                  Size: 9 by 10 inches, 1 inch thick 
                  Composition: White cement (Winterstone), reinforcing 
                    mesh. Impressions made using house number "4" and "1" for 
                    the skull, a boning knife, screwdriver, screw eye, scalpel 
                    blade, electrical plug, crescent wrenches. 
                  Collection site: Washington, DC 
                  Comments: I used a different formulation of cement 
                    this time. It gives a different look, and it's more difficult 
                    to sculpt. The result has some superficial surface cracks 
                    that add a very appropriate texture to this piece.
