Working on a little re-install of a garden border from the older, sunken in edges. Lots of shist to choose from, should be a fun project to inlay!

Stone face

Slightly mysterious stone face in a frieze in the cathedral. Amongst the angels and baroque twirls he seems a little out of place.

Arte Inca de Piedra: Qorikancha, Cusco, 2009.

Just finished Cut Stones and Crossroads, a book about Perú antes del turismo de masas by the British Canadian archaeologist Ronald Wright. Fascinating insights about the Inca, the Andean empires that preceded that short-lived empire, and the current (1970s anyway) lives of their Andean progeny. Recommended reading for any one interested in archaeology, Andean culture or who is planning a trip to Machu Picchu.

Carved and painted this stone for me and my wife. She did the artwork, I did the carving on it.
