    I AM REALLY AMAZED AND LOVE TOO OF WHAT YOUR DOING,...especially that I love seeing at a house which have a nice facade,a beautiful garden with statues...but the beauty, elegance symbolizes the spirit and natural beauty of one's being who actually made that and it remains forever as life goes on...I admire you Heather as you are a brave woman with a love and so passionate carving a STONE,..I would love to do that too and hear from you some of the details on how you do that!...🤩😍👍

    Hello, I've been carving for three years: "du calcaire" (I'm french), marble from Carrare, a bit of granite but it's particular... I miss the stone. Maynlely i'm a painter. I just stop my work at about 23 years,doing nothing, for the gallery system appears like a crap for me after Art school in Beaux arts de Paris, drinking to, now i'm 47. I try to go back in the work, even if sometimes i don't want to make stuff in such a world, but anyway... There's no age to come on through. Tank's for the reach. All the best.

    Jesus healed my emotional hurt through Ma'am' story. Especially with 3:27 context. I love John 3:27 💓 I have two dialects, two - three accents mixed speech. Stammering with Lot healed speech in The Good Lord's blood. I prayed for healing.

    can relate, i love carving when i was a child and good at it.. I was an odd ball and love the corner that no one visits. But I choose the highway (bec. of ignorance and pussy) and become a software developer....................... it sucks!!.. I should have pursue carving/painting and become a recluse..life would have been a bliss

And he’ll yes if your a woman in the us your privileged period!!.
