Happy St. Patrick's Day !!!


 I'm posting pictures of the last 2 week's worth of progress while the chicken wings are cooking...
 This is a side view which shows how much material was carved off "Hope" on nice days.
 It's just about finished and ready for me to make the base. !!!SALE PENDING !!!
 I also snuck in a few days on a large sprout seat.
 It's titled "Determination" because the sprout is lifting and holding up the large square stone weight.
 There's been a lot of nasty weather, so I worked inside and made some limestone vessels.
 This one is called "Inverse", measures 19" x 15" x 7" high.  It represents the necessity for "keeping things close to the vest" and hiding one's inner worth in certain circumstances. !!!SOLD!!!
 The 2nd piece in this series in called "Cauldron".
 Here's an alternate view.  It measures 23" x 18" x 8" high and will sell for $680.00.  This represents Inspiration; ideas being cooked up to order...


 This piece is called "Drop in the Ocean".
 ...and another view.  It measures 20" x 10" x 12".  This represents the need to maintain one's individuality in a crowd.  It has a twist; there are ocean waves in the drop...!!!SOLD!!!
 This piece has a tentative title of "Back Petal".  This play-on-words is a leaf with a flower petal instead of a stem - a visual reminder that sometimes a cautious halt or retreat is better than beating your head against the wall.  Eventually, when the time is right, one can move forward again.
...and this is another view of that piece.  It measures 20" x 16" x 9" high.!!!SOLD!!!


The 6" of snow on Monday took everyone by surprise.  Looking forward to pretty spring weather...
