Granite sculpture


I often create gravel circles and put stones and plants in them. I was looking for natural stones, but found these that had been salvaged from the debris of the Charles Street jail renovation in Boston. It was serendipitous in that the client had been in the jail (professionally) as a young lawyer, and remembered it well. I set them in place with a bobcat. Three and a half tons total, I think. I'm quite pleased with the composition. Sort of Noguchi like. There's a young acer palmatum Ukigumo in the left foreground. jc
