I like finding things, part two.

The habit of leaving objects in boxes for others to enjoy throws up some lovely items. Here’s my second post of a book I found series. To see more pages, please reply and I’ll post as requested.

I like finding things. Berliner’s have a habit of leaving objects in boxes for others to enjoy. I have found some great books, and one today I’ll post next in the series. Here’s one I found earlier to get the series going.

Black water.

I sat and imagined the deep. Below the surface of a deep reservoir in the moors of England a white sheet dances and pulsates in the distance.

This flowing line guides user’s through a building steeped in history and in the present for me as an artist. This staircase, of this floor, of this building will always be significant as it has given me more as an artist than England ever has.

On The Waterfront.

Last week’s self-portrait from a break from the stone lithography. Back to printing in December.

A fascinating process I have loved for a long while! Will be posting more here on the detailed stages, and revealing in time, why.

Back to exploring stone lithography today — such a beautiful, meticulous process for the reproduction of photographs!
