suburban light house

someone's been busy in the workshop today!

this amazing house came to light in a very short time frame, but is as solid as a house. wow, two puns in one sentence! anyway, it looks spectacular. i'm resisting the urge to deconstruct its meaning as an art object (the inner glow of the home hearth, the inverted reflection of antipodean architecture etc etc) ... no wait ... i didn't resist at all! it's so sculptural how can i resist?!

imagine a line of these over a dining table - like an upside down street scape. cool, no?

coming at it from different angles

there's been a little shape in the stockroom workshop, sitting on a workbench, like a giant cut gem. it's been getting blacker and blacker, deeper hues on deeper hues. and it's been getting glossier and glossier with the passing days. i've been keeping an eager eye on it, wanting to touch it, but not allowed to because it was drying after each coat.

until today.

now i can sit on it ... and sit on it i did!
