It's fun for me to see how a piece evolves. In this case I had worked it up to a fairly finished state when I realized that her face was too long between the mouth and eyes.
Normally I'd just squish the head a little but this clay is firmer (to facilitate molding and casting into bronze) so I had to make a cut and then seam it back together again.
