An artist needs a good canvas...or stones




The right stones must be scoped out, found legally or thieved from gardens without fences or neighbours who have been annoying the crap out of me for the last 40 years.  I do have outdoor paint and 2 turtles, 4 gnomes, a frog and a pot waiting for a coat of said paint. Patient they are, 6 years of waiting but soon, soon.

Those rocks are beautiful. and thanks for reminding me I need outdoor paint, I have a gnome who needs repainting also Cap'n Jack the macaw.

Oooooh.
Lovely things. And the penguins aren't the only ones I lust after.

River, I was lucky to buy all mine in a sale at Lincraft but it was so long ago I suppose they will still be okay. I've never had the chance to use them yet so it's starting to look like a country cemetary out on the lawn.

EC, I thought of you as soon as I found the penguin. I'm still looking for just the right shaped rock but I'll never be as good as this artist.
