Rocks


I find solace in searching for the ideal rocks to bring together in creating a piece of art with and in nature. Sometimes they form a leaning tower and others just three will suffice. I can be in the middle of a city or deep in the wilderness (as seen above). I think about the next person who will discover my creation and wonder about it's origination, taking their mind off their day to day routine to embrace a simple peaceful moment. At times I incorporate other bits of nature as inspired by the British artist who resides in Scotland, Andy Goldsworthy. I so admire his artist approach to his work.
