I liked the bridge and the dolphins.My daughter went to China a few years ago,I have some of her at the Great Wall,with a mongolian guard.Seems more beautiful than we think of it....

Yeah! Aren't the dolphins the coolest!?!

I showed it to hubby and told him I need one for our pond,
he snorted and left the room.

That must have been an amazing trip that your daughter took!

What talent, my favorite is the dolphins to.

Awesome! Too many excellent ones to really pick a favorite, but the hand dropping water into the stream was very striking. I really enjoyed some of the more intricate ones with multiple colors growing in just the right spots.

Oh, I'm so glad that you posted this link!
I could not have recalled Pearl Fryar's name to save my life,
but I remember seeing him (and his awesome work) profiled on a TV segment a few years back.
What an inspiration!!!

The world is filled with people with passion who could give a hoot about what their neighbors think or if they blend in. I love them all.
