Sculpture

Versus What ?
A sculpture that got finished this morning. Early enough that Rita and I had breakfast with it. I highly recomend starting off a new springish day with a good new sculpture; versus........... milk and toast!

Sculpture


Disturbing the past. Have you ever heard that's not a good thing to do? I took some quartz rocks in my mind and through them at a plank that's been under my house for safe keeping. I found the plank submerged in a river below an old blacksmiths house. It had some old hand forged nails in it . It is about my height or taller and it weighed a lot .
It kind of looks like a plank that got a bunch of snow balls thrown at it.
I carved out holes in the wood to accommodate the various sized quartz; some poked through and some didn't. It defies physics and my own convention of thought and that is a success in this case.
