A found still-life while on a walk with my daughter in the ravine. It was about Health and Mortality -- a strange thing to find on a fallen oak.

19" X 23 1/2"
we recently returned from a two month trip to asia. we visited china, tibet, nepal, bhutan, india, burma and japan.
just us two (not a "tour"), our backpacks and sense of adventure.
we have been in burma before, but this time we spent more time in this beautiful country.
we had an amazing time on our trip.

EXPLANATION OF THIS PIECE:
there are several caves in burma that house thousands of buddha statues. some are very very old and some are newer.
they fill the extensively large multi-level caves from top to bottom....standing on the cave floors and high up in small niches.
it is a golden, awesome, spiritual, peaceful and awe-inspiring experience to behold.
A rusted circular saw blade mounted on weathered barn wood, its oxidized surface a map of years left out in the elements. Rust streaks bleed down the grain like the blade is slowly becoming part of the wall.

More from the Chee and Millers Dale album.
I think this also qualifies for my Kindness of strangers album!
Found this little fellow hanging out on the beach. We set him up to keep all mosquitoes, sand flies, and other general nuisances at bay.
"The peace ships" is a sound and light artwork by Päivi Laakso on the Fredriksvern shipyard. The work is an installation of objet trouvé (found object) consisting of four old wooden boats. The boats are placed where ships in the past were built. The title of "Peace" alludes to the warship "Friderichsværn" that was built at the shipyard and was completed to 1814. This ship was never in active war service.
The boats are placed upright and all have the keel facing the sea. The largest boat is 19 feet and the smallest 8 feet high.
Each boat has installed sound and light. Merete Mongstad has been responsible for the sound installation. Kurt Hermansen for light installation, which consists of diodes.
