"When I feel like dancing, I dance. I don't care if anyone else is dancing or if everyone else is laughing at me. I dance." Atisha.
Thank you, James Geddes........."You create emotions within me with simple shapes that spark thought and intrigue! Not just once but repeatedly! "

I too have collected pebbles. So your beautiful message of "Zen" speaks deeply. I love feeling the smoothness, holding them to my cheek, feeling in my heart their" ancient of days", marveling at how something so simple as a pebble can blow me away. All this is so exquisitely presented here in your outstanding new contemporary artwork Viva. Fabulously done. L/F
VIVA Anderson replied:
The simple, real things we hold dear to comfort us, Jane, are the treasures, the realities we know. And thank you so much for enjoying my recent forays into a more contemporary voice......VIVA

These are my beloved pebbles/stones collected throughout the world,on my journeys...they have always given me a way to speak, through their memories,their earthiness,truth.
