Untitled (or at least unlabeled) sculpture in the niche of an outer wall of local sculptor Dov Barda's home. I've always loved this piece, and others he has mounted outside his home, so I was delighted to find out that he was hosting an open house this past weekend. The pieces inside were absolutely wonderfully - many reminiscent of this style, but many others with more organic, fluid lines that seemed to flow and move under my duly admiring gaze. I would have taken photographs inside but it didn't seem all that appropriate.

Better yet, I should have taken out another mortgage and brought one of them home with me. If I ever win the lottery I'll be back to do so before day's end.

This photo is naturally monochrome, being a black statue against a white wall.

Visit Aileni for more monochrome magic.

PS My parents arrive for a visit in the morning so computer time over the next two weeks will be a bit scarce. I'll catch up with everyone eventually, but it may take a while.

I thought just like Aileni - liquorice - and I just love it. LOL - maby not as tasty as he looks ;)
That's just how we feel on Monday, at the time we must go back working. Yet, tired before beginning.
Very creative post, Robin, for the Artist and for your choice.

Fabulous photo and sculpture
Zeisen Pesach .. and enjoy having the parents!
Just found your blog, and glad that I did.
The sculpture is wonderful, but your photo composition is even better. Great shot, very compelling.
But being new here, I just have to make one other comment...YOUR KITCHEN IS SO CLEAN!!!! (you wanna come over to my house)
I say - tummy muscles of steel! I like his textures, especially in close up - but am a bit alarmed that he hasn't got much to lean against.
I hope you'll have a great time with your parents!
I like this, he looks so relaxed.
This was me by the end of this weekend. But I didn't realize anyone had taken any notice, much less an artist in Tel Aviv!
Great "found" monochrome!
Funny picture, too!
Fantastic! I'd like to have him asleep outside my house!
Love the naturally monochrome shot, Robin! Enjoy your holiday! Will miss you if you don't post or comment once in a while over the next 2 weeks! :)
