River Rocks for Helen
I just finished this piece and I love it, I loved making it. I’m going to start making my ‘rockpiles’ again. I made this for my friend Helen Rosenfeld. She wanted to ‘buy a piece’. She’s given me a little money down. I had no idea what to make her. She likes intimate, natural stuff.
I thought she’d like one of my ‘functional rocks’, a little one that fits right in your hand like a baby bird. One that opens, is lined with Juniper so you can smell it and that is so finished it feels like a baby’s butt – soothing, comforting. Then the piece just grew.
She has 3 ‘kids’ – in their 50’s. So I made it into 3 sections. I’m bringing it over to her today. I’ll show her the individual rocks first and then the whole piece. She may or may not like it. If she doesn’t I’ll bring it to the show.
