Day 3 of banging on this stone and creating dust, it has begun to be difficult to just cut without any real vision. It seems that this allows a lot of questioning of each cut and removes many of the natural ideas that come even when a plan has been made.

While searching for the words to describe my early work i came upon a good web site http://www.authenticpromotion.com/

There is a lot of good information here about how to promote your work and one of the steps in promotion is to describe your work .

When i look at some of the things I've done in the past and try to find a connecting thread i think descriptive words like : clean lines, simple lines, simple designs, symbolizing strength , age and peacefulness.

I have a good friend ( not sure he uses that term) Walter Matia http://www.matia.com/ who's

opinion i respect and ask for many times . He stopped by the other day and without me knowing saw this new stone. A perfectly nice stone ruined would be the gist of it. To busy was another comment. At this point , with this piece i agreed.
