It's crazy busy here at home with trying to get our house ready for listing on the market next week. Of course, it's one step forward and two back sometimes, as Jason follows me round undoing everything I do, lol! <br />Anyway, just love this new source of inspiration and also, your last posting has some terrific looking books too (that bibliophile that I am can't resist of course!). The bird by bird one looks interesting. I have discovered wetlands. The local ones more to the point.

Do you have any stone pieces? <br /><br />Catherine, I'm getting there!<br /><br />Mansuetude, they are caverns aren't they? I would love to have a closer look.<br /><br />Shayla, Falcone's work is exciting for me too!<br /><br />Stevie, dinapanou's work just calls out to be touched. I love the simplicity.<br /><br />Merci33, Keith Long's pieces bring out the beauty of weathered wood and I love his sense of humor.<br /><br />Carolyn, its a pleasure.<br /><br />Sylvia, the beauty of Henriques work (besides the size) is the fluidity.

...I especially love the work of the first artist. <br /><br />I wanted to carve wood, when I first started as an artist. My sculpture prof told me that he would never start someone carving wood, and had me carve stone instead. I loved it! I still think wood is beautiful.<br /><br />P.S.
