I wanted to post something today but seems like I'm run out of ideas. Even in the discussion it seems like the transition is slow. So, to make my mylotting active I search some good theme in my photo album and came out with this sculpture of fish swimming in the stones. I remember I took the photo in the nearby province particularly in the municipality of Luna. The place is called 'Bahay Na Bato' or Stone House. The place is decorated with lots of sculpted big stones in different faces and forms. This fish is just one of the hundreds rock carvings or sculptures in the said place. Lots are decorated in the said place. Take a look at the fish, I think the artist is really talented in making this art. I had interviewed him but not posted it. But I think he got a good skills. photo is mine

That's one big fish, they should have cleaned it. Or was it like that when it was made?

it must be painted with good color, maybe its part of it... or maybe it was just neglected with the wipes.

Just like that, carving or sculpting stones into different things and forms like animals, fishes, and the artist can also do it with trunks.

@ilocosboy i bet even if you use all the woods in the forest to make it softer, you will fail.
