Beautiful form.
Possibly, the Australians spend much time outdoors in their summer.
My winter (now) is my wood carving time.
Lots of snow all last night and now in a south wind but only -2C.
Some drifts are 100cm.

Yes I am still carving, at the moment they are small pieces based on the contrast between curves and edges. My Mum is going blind so I thought pieces whose major focus was touch might be interesting, turns out they also look good. Will post some pics when I get a chance, currently putting up a pool.

I'm still carving almost daily just to stay ahead of the gallery demand, but its designs that I've posted here in the past so I don't keep posting photos of what is essentially the same stuff. I've got a few new pieces in the works though... will post when their done.

Nice one !
It looks very white on the picture, is it really white that much ? lovely anyway.
It reminds me some works of José Ballester, in a more aleatory way.
He's carver living not very far from my place. I saw his work recently but didn't met him; unfortunately i came to the exposition at lunch time
here is a link :

He was born in Spain but lives in France for more than 40 years, in Villefranche-de-Rouergue. there's a biography somewhere on his blog.
I live 60km North-east from there, extreme north of the Aveyron.
I may come in Belgium sometime... there's a direct flight Rodez to Bruxelles, low cost !

Very inspired work there , IDEFIX! Nice to see someone 's still working . And very kind of you to ask about me - still alive & kicking , preparing an exhibition this summer , if new autorities (elections just passed here) don't change their mind about supporting sculptors...All this is not an excuse for being away from the forum for such a long time , I know...
It's a slow and painful process...the secret is, dont mind the pain.(Ian Norbury)
