This granite bolder I found on Manitoulin island several years back with the intent to use it as a base for one of my pieces. After shaping it and it sitting in my studio over the years came to love it as is! I did not bring it to a high polish as this would distract you from it’s overall shape. 35.5 cms in height overall width 30 cms. (14” by 12”) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn5AtNaPwKv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This granite that I found on Manitoulin island was intense for the base of a sculpture. After shaping and being around the studio for several years loved it as is! 35.5 cms in height, base roughly 30 by 28 cms. 14”x12”x11” https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn4-yTxv-0c/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Second spout Volcanic Rhyolite. Pretty well left as I found it on the desert floor. Quite fractured due to I suspect from blasting. Liked the fracturing plus would have been near impossible to carve. Weight 52k or 112lbs. https://www.instagram.com/p/CBn08tDA4bR/?igshid=1uyt8ir1fk700

Picking up stones from the desert floor. Volcanic Rhyolite shaped into two water spouts. The stone was very fractured I guess due to mine blasting, so pretty well left as is. https://www.instagram.com/p/CBnztmHg5jc/?igshid=a6na2gsgbgl2

This is the bratty Lady. Vermont marble, on a wooden base 93 - 47- 14cm. Carved this as a voodoo doll in 2012. The black wooden base represents the street, having fallen from grace. Within the back of her dress I have carved my symbol for we the creators of our own reality.
