The lake is frozen over,snowdrops everywhere. I dropped off some stones and my tools at the garden today and look forward to start carving bright and early tomorrow morning. This garden is well worth a visit!!

After the drying and the structure being hung upside down gives the vision of growth (Tropism), gravity turned on it’s head.

The place has a very beautiful park, I am positive that my piece will relate in some way with the surroundings.Having been there before I feel much more in the know of what is expected of me over there and that is a good thing.Last time I hardly prepared a thing this time round I am in some knowledge of the place and people and inspiration comes naturally.My preparations and thoughts I am tuning in german,as it helps me to get into the mood of being over there again
