Carved stone with lovely cream and red/brown viens running through it. Four holes lead into the piece connecting at it's centre.

Title:       'Dark Heart'
Size:        6 by 6 inches squared appox.
Medium:  English Alabaster
Price:       For Sale

Details:        
A simple, delicate, wide curve sweaps towards it's heart where a dark pebble, rescued from Brighton Beach, rests. This 'DARK HEART' is Balanced within the hole that runs through the stone in a small curved opening at the far side. This Alabaster piece has two green grey viens running through it that contrast beautifully with the crystal like white. This sculpture took me well over a week from concept to completion, it is a harder stone than Soap stone and yet it bruises more easily if you work it too vigourously with hard chisels.

Title:        Untitled
Size:        6 inches square approx
Medium:  Maltese Stone
Price:       For Sale

Details:    
A hand carved cream/ white stone that will weather beautifully if placed in a garden. Carved from a square block this piece is sectioned by linear indents wrapping around the surface of the stone and reaching into a hollowed out circular nook, you can see here in the photograph. Once again I have not dictated which surface the piece should stand upon but offer a variety of opptions for the owner to choose the detail they love the best. The stone it's self is very heavy and dense and is perfect to be placed in a garden as it will weather beautifully- becoming bleached by the sun and covered by green lichen and moss.
