Originally, the idea was this. Two sisters spending one year creating art, or at least creating, every day using only supplies that they already have, get for free, find, or receive...looking to rediscover the artistic selves they've lost somewhere along the way in all the clutter of life... But it didn't fit into life, and so now who knows what you might find?!!

#43 - The Four Stones

When Adriana was little we took her on a megalithic stone tour of Wales, she was delightful, such a trooper... Just happy and game for anything... So we arrived after hours of driving to this site, The Four Stones (aka The Four Kings) at Old Radnor, in a plowed field that was very earthy smelling (yes, other people may just come out & say all you could smell was cow manure)... Both her and Ray were less than impressed... "Want to play duck, duck, goose?" I asked... and all was happy again in stone searching land... 'duck... duck... duck...'

  1. I remember when dad used to drag us across England, ducking behind unknown people's back yards, and heading us through pastures, sometimes full of animals, to find a stone perched on a birm in the middle of nowhere - and then sharing in his enthusiasm as he photographed it (even if we'd rather be playing duck, duck, goose...wish I could have some of those days back now!)
    Sarah, I really adore your hand-coloring of these photos, the colors pop out at you and make these stones so mysterious and wonderful.

  2. Remember you & I in Cornwall investigating some stone or another and realizing we were sharing the field with a bull?!!!

    How funny that I do the same thing with my family, sans the unlawful entry bits!! Wonder if Adriana will find a love of her own like we did, or always just think I'm off my rocker...
