Catalogue Note

INSCRIPTION:

Strange stones were ever my passion.  From memory I recorded some that I have known.  Fine stones from the mists of so much time.  But sometimes, late at night in the gentle glow of the incense, I revert to the imagination to paint the essence of stones entertained.

Inscribed at the Garden at the Edge of the Universe in the warm spring of 2010, Bangkok.
