The arm of an arm chair being stripped back to basics, in the process of being being made over into its former glory.
A big thank you to Sam from St Morris Upholsterers who let me wander freely around his workshop and shop taking these photos. See also their Facebook page St Morris Klassik.
Ivory arm, from Anguillaria Sabazia / Rome - Hypotheses: 1) Greek original by Euphranor (4th century BC); 2) Roman copy from Phidias or Praxiteles; 3) Portrait of Antonia Minor, Claudius emperor's mother (41-54 AD) - Archaeological Museum Palazzo Massimo in Rome
Those trees in the background are leaning like that, believe it or not. The mountainside falls away very steeply in that spot, the creek becomes too rugged to follow.
This composition isn't particularly riveting, I think when I took this I was both admiring the color of the iron-rich rock and trying somehow to show the character of the creek and what made it such a nice place to bring the boys. I did my best to remind them that anyplace in a mountain stream with green on it, can be treacherously slippery! Test, test, test!
To wit, years later, in a very benign spot after a fun but very warm hike, my youngest son stripped down to cool off in some shallow water, and he slipped in the water. In the act of bracing himself, he fractured his wrist. Summer vacation had just started, he spent the rest of that summer wearing a bright blue lobster claw-like cover on his arm anytime he wanted to go swimming, to protect his cast. We sent him to grandma's for a few weeks of R&R and his hygiene and cast-protection skills inevitably suffered after endless days of swimming and eventually the cast started oozing what one of his uncles referred to as "arm cheese".

I took this in the Rischart Cafe with my iPhone as a pano shot -- but this guy was reaching for a pastry as I did, resulting in his arm appearing extended (and his face, as well).
What is it about women putting an arm on their head that makes me want to reach out and touch just above that lead horse?
I decided today, to make four small prints of limbs 'n hands 'n feet 'n things:) I just pulled this first one,it's still wet! 19.9.09
yet another picture of my arm taken by cate, a few weeks ago -- i love the star shape in the wood...
the star in more context:
Because the inside of my arms has so little hair I had never thought about just how much hair there was on the outside of the arm. I accidentally took a photo of the outside of my arm and was amazed to see its alarming furryness. The hair in the arm is silky and an brown blond color unlike the rest of my hair which is black, the reason might be all the sun exposure it gets. A curious result of the thick cover of hair is that mosquitos seem to have great trouble when trying to bite my arms as they have to struggle to try to cross the hair. An mosquito foolish enought to try to bite is quickly noticed and sent to the great mosquito swamp in the sky.
Naval troops with four different arm badges and a naval tally ribbon pose by barbed wire. The badges with one exception are indiscernable in to me. Some research may provide their specialty area.
So the film Director Barbie has stiff arms but since I had this jointed arm Barbie torso from that Costco two pack I decided to try swapping the arms at the shoulders since both arms are made of hard vinyl.
I boiled some water and let both shoulders soak for about 5 minutes and then slowly worked them off the peg. I then resoaked them to soften them further and shoved the jointed arms back onto the Director body. It warped the joints a bunch but since most of it is hidden in the torso it’snot noticeable.
It weirds me out but the jointed ankles leg seems much shorter than regular fashionista legs and i don’t know why lol.
