All clayed up. The insulation foam underneath saves me from sculpting a giant block all the way down to the table.
I had to cut quite a bit of this agate away to eliminate the porous spots on the edges, which were very rough and varied a great deal in thickness. Otherwise, it is strickly a free form cabochon. There is some boytroidal area on the bottom side.
A typical local scene. I stopped to take a photo as I was cycling and strolling through Handsworth, where I live. I was with my grandson, Oliver. A friend asks of this photo of fly-tipping reported to Birmingham City Council - yet again. "Why do they do this?" "Good question, Catherine. I assume that many of these people have problems. You could say 'Don't we all?'. But I wonder if this needs to be understood as a symptom of enduring invasive embedded poverty - physical and, even more, psychological, breeding mental states so far outside my experience that I struggle, without success, to appreciate.
Some dumping is crime, an illegal business, the motive - profit; the perpetrator agreeing to dispose of rubbish for a client, possibly a landlord changing tenancies who may even have paid an agent the disposal fee at Birmingham City Council's Holford Drive tip. The agent pockets the 'fee' and dumps the waste, or else the 'owner' of the rubbish has simply given a 'white van man' the wink that says 'lose it'.
But there's dumping that's symptomatic of something else. In our area of the inner suburbs of the city, there are many young people, usually in private accommodation, too often with dodgy rental contracts or none at all, in work but on night shift, some working with zero hour contracts (surveys say this is the face of contemporary poverty) plus people on and off 'the game', trapped in routinely abusive relationships and debt, even being trafficked, working under the radar for dodgy cash and - as likely committing unpaid, sometimes illegal, quid pro quos to service their debt. Not a few of the people we come across see themselves as 'outlaws'. One friend used the word the other day - 'unadopted', 'out' of any semblance of community while unlike - say - Gypsies, or gang-members or professional criminals, not belonging to any counter-society to give identity, companionship, esteem. The availability of drugs - alcohol, heroin, crack, different forms of cannabis - is a recipe for mental illness, and the apathy and alienation that separates too many of our neighbours from community engagement and active citizenship. Litter, the appearance of the street and the inside and outside of houses, are not things that figure in this part of our population. Too many are deafened by their circumstances, used to being verbally abused, immune to their neighbours' opinions. www.facebook.com/groups/334430036631024/

I knew I had to take a picture of this driftwood when I saw it, and I wasn't sure why I loved it so much until I realized later on that it reminds me of a photo I took in Yellowstone back in early Summer 2015 of some trees killed by geothermal water from a nearby geyser. (That photo is also posted on my Flickr account, by the way)
Around the Lenin statue there was a lot of stuff embedded into the sidewalk. I didn't get any decent pictures of the whole thing, but this detail of a very finely decorated hammer embedded in the concrete did turn out pretty well I thought.
Image of vintage teenage romance art encased in handmade, resin cube. Image is from the golden age of comic books. The ‘Good Girl’ covers as they were called, usually featured smart women who might fall into precarious positions.
Each resin cube takes many steps and several days to create. The resin cube is then added to an adjustable silver plated ring. This one has lots of bubbles, so it's not going in the store. I've been making and selling these resin cubes off and on since 2003 using the square cabinet drawer pull molds by Castin' Craft. I'm working on a system to make these interchangeable.

Un número dedicado a explorar la visión y propuestas de Marcel Duchamp.
No su vida, no su obra; tan sólo algunos de sus conceptos.
Realizado con aportes de artistas, pensadores y diseñadores de todo el mundo
combinados con la explícita intención de producir a su vez un objeto duchampiano.
-el medio como instrumento intelectual que transpasa su especificidad y se burla de ella
-la obra independientemente de su carácter representativo e interpretativo
-”arte”, en términos de convenciones, lo más “amorfo” posible
-”obras” en las que la obra no es una finalidad en sí misma sino una excusa
-interpretaciones o, mejor dicho, lecturas que pueden convivir a pesar de ser aparentemente excluyentes
-objetos “anestesiados estéticamente”, anulados en su probable complacencia de la mirada, “rectificados”,”asistidos” para otorgarles una nueva -a menudo, insólita- significación. Como en la elección de los “ready-mades”: “basada en la indiferencia visual y en la ausencia total del buen o mal gusto”
-obras “definitivamente inacabadas”
-rrose sélavy, su alter(-)ego
-ajedrez, máquinas ópticas, matemáticas, geometría, “artefactos”
-la “pintura mental”, “pintura de precisión”, el rechazo de cualquier elemento en el que la mirada se pueda recrear con fruición
-texto, - bloques, - fotografías, + mixed-media, + pintura, + ilustración.
-toda la revista está en castellano e inglés.

This issue plays around the conceptual universe of Marcel Duchamp. Not his life, nor his works, just some of his concepts.
- the medium, as an intellectual tool which goes beyond its specificity mocking it.
- the work, regardless of its representative and interpretative character.
- “art”, in terms of conventions, as “amorphous” as possible.
- “construction”, in which the work is not it’s purpose, but an excuse.
- interpretations, or rather readings which can coexist despite being seemingly exclusive.
- objects “aesthetically anesthetized,” lapsed in their likely sight complacency; “rectified”, “assisted”, to give them a new –often unusual- significance. As with the choice of “ready-mades”: “based on visual indifference and a total absence of good or bad taste”
- works “definitively unfinished”.
- rrose sélavy, his alter (-) ego.
- chess, optic machines, mathematics, geometry, “artifacts”.
- “mental painting,” “precision painting”, the rejection of any element in which sight can be delighted.
- aesthetics: - text, - blocks, - photographs, + mixed-media, + painting, + illustration.
- the whole magazine, in spanish and english.

A Joint Terminal Attack Controller from 5th Air-Naval Gunfire Liaison Company embedded with Japan’s Amphibious Rapid Deployment Brigade as U.S. Marines teamed up with the ARDB to conduct an amphibious assault on Gaja-Jima, a small uninhabited island off the coast of mainland Japan, as part of Keen Sword, Nov. 1, 2020. Japan Self-Defense Force CH-47JA Chinooks touched down delivering streams of ARDB troops while U.S. Marines hit the beach via small boats briskly navigating over the horizon from the USS Ashland. ARDB members took point alongside Marines with 1st Battalion, 3d Marine Regiment arriving from the air and sea in the amphibious operation. This mission showcased a combined ability to seize territory threatened by an adversary, defend key maritime terrain, and establish expeditionary advanced bases for follow-on operations through swift, integrated, and lethal action.

Madrid skyline at night, seen from the west side. The blackness below all the lights is a steep slope down and then a golf course.
It was below freezing, so to get warm I decided to run around up and down the slope with a LED lamp in my hand and try to draw something. Then I thought it would be cool to sign the picture.
Just so you get a glimpse of how far I was, I made the signature about 1 meter (3 feet) wide.
