The phrase “I May Not Know Art, But I Know What I Like” is usually attributed to Orson Welles. And I really like the piece (sculpture?) below. It sits in the entrance the salon where I get my hair cut and was created by the husband of the owner. I’m trying to set up an interview and hoping he has more like this.

Pile of rocks
The cone-like dome of the cairn came out pretty much as I had envisioned. I collected as many round-ish rocks as I could find and stacked them as I would cannonballs (not something I’m ever likely to do). Started with a ring (see image below) and worked my way up. This little project took about a month but the heat spell halted work for much of that time.
