    Welcome to DGrin! wave.gif

    I have always admired what an exerienced brick mason can do with stone. Hard work, but true artwork. Stonework is coming back big time around here for the fancier new homes.

    I like the treatment you gave this shot. Have any other angles or interpretations of it?

    One of my top 10 all time favorite novels: The Pillars Of The Earth By Ken Follett. Amazing story, centered around the building of a cathedral in 12th Century England. You'll learn a lot about stone work.

    That's a GREAT novel Andy. I must have read that thing 15 times. I'll never look at a cathedral the same way again.
