I find I do my best work in the wee hours and usually sculpt on weekends (most of the day and night) and on most weekday nights from 9PM to 2AM - then get up at 5AM and go to work. Call me crazy.

I do agree with Llaria about spending almost as much time studying and contemplating as doing the actual work. I find that when I watch TV (which is rare) that I am not watching at all, but studying the faces. When at the gym, constantly studying faces (and trying not to be obvious about staring at people!). When talking with people, sometimes I find myself staring at their forehead, chin, etc. I'm sure they are wondering what the heck I'm looking at.

As far as actual time spent on a piece - anywhere from 5 days to 5 months.
