Ipswich [England] August 15

It would have been quite a project to make a whole quilt of these

Certainly this could be used as a needle/pin keep now

The other looks to be taking a rest from his labor

perhaps the frame was made just for it

Boy With Dog and Cat Turning Head, Tender and Moody Old Photo stoneware boot Ipswich [England] August 15A very dreamy feeling one, with what I think is a fair bit of toning especially around the edges, which compounds the fact of it seeming almost as if having been taken with a pinhole camera, with the face of the child in clear focus and everything skewing a bit from there. I especially love the head of the cat, captured in perfect motion. Quite beautiful I think. 7" x 5". Toning particularly around the edges, which seems all of a piece with it.
