spoons and spheres

A wooden spoon, like so many things, is the process of working a surface to "build inwards" towards a core elemental identity. I found a birch tree that feel down in the high winds last week. I need to get the bark shaved away so that the wood can breathe. First things first.

Rock and wood

There's a huge tree stump out behind our house that I've been trying to move (half-heartedly) for about six months. It has a beautiful space where a rock has been "grown-around" by the roots, creating an almost sensual intertwining of rock and wood. I would like to celebrate it.
