I haven't posted any art images for a while because I want to show how the art is made. Here is another structure that will become a sculpture. In a dream there were two stones I found in the ground. One was so big it was not possible to move but one was and it is becoming a non dream sculpture. The two points or ears on top of this were on the stone in the dream. It was the one I could pick up and walk away with.

I didn't walk away with it though because the property owner would have upon seeing it gone " oh great you found me a beautiful stone Bob" and I would have had to say yes and walk away with out it.

That is why I'm making my own stone and if any one is going to walk away with this one they will be gladly paying me for it! Finding beautiful stones and possessing them seems to be a very ancient human desire. Since I'm not finding but making these stones does this change anything ? I'm not copying any stones or rendering the likeness of a particular stone. I don't know what to call it.

It will be what it will be.
It's beginning to have sides,surfaces and a platform. (it's actually 3" taller now above the platform;picture not available yet) So far it's about 2 feet tall.

This may not be interesting to any one but it is where I spend my time and energy and you usually only see the outer skin of the work. It is a working from the inside out way of seeing. The form eventually appears. Come back if you care to and there will be more stages to see. Beautiful stones are for ever in my opinion. (sounds like a diamond commercial)
