As the day turns into night and the cow turns into burgers,
these are the ways without life

whatever that line is supposed to mean.

Does it really matter?
If a post is posted on steemit and has no views, does the post still exist.

I have been putting up the scotty's stone daily series, so here is the penultimate part of that (for the moment)

It's a recurring project, so I am sure it'll be round agian.

I have come in and out of the stone trance.

I did a lot in 2004
Those ones can be seen at the linked page, sticks and stones on my website.

I have already posted an artist's statement for these works, that's the newer works.

and the first three in the series
and the next three in the series, four to six
and the next three, numbers seven to nine

Now without further ado, here are the forth group of three stones, and their respective texts from Saatchi, that were written on the day.
I am much more suited to working for two years and then having to produce the goods all at once.

This daily thing really gets to me, some days are diamonds, but some days suck balls badly.

I haven't edited the texts from there, just a couple of typos that I caught after all this time.

day ten of the pointless pebble portrait project up, and no sign of slowing down.
haha. What a liar!
not able to fit them into the day, I have been working through the night.
I am still to try and sleep, so will probably go and lie horizontal for some hours real soon.

I thought this was supposed to get easier, but I suppose I am just tired. Almost missed completely, as I started another one, found that the combo of the stone and the pigment I had chosen was not good, and started this one. (the other one is on hold)
Then couldn't get this one to work either, for the longest time. In the end it is another that has gone over to next day.
Maybe it won't be daily, just a serving suggestion.
But it should have come together with less struggle, and to better result. All this burning the candle at both ends has its drawbacks.
Only day 11 and it's only the trial version. I am seriously thinking I will not be able to make it. I suppose that will turn around. They are going to look good all hanging together, if I get that chance.

no matter how long you work on one of these (and when I say you I mean me, so I) when you scan them and look at them on the big screen there's always things that could be improved. Today's is no exception. I wonder if I'll ever be satisfied with any of these.
Day twelve of the trial period for scotty's stone daily. I don't now what to say, except to note that it already feels Sisyphean, appropriately enough.
Sisyphus, for those who don't know was condemned by the gods (for various crimes against their order, including he chaining of death) to roll a heavy stone up a mountain, only to have it roll right back down again.
Albert Camus wrote of the Sisyphean myth, and it's a good read. Reading it just now http://dbanach.com/sisyphus.htm
has cheered me up no end, to my no end in sight task. Well, mine does have an end, it just seems far off from here.
Absurdity reigns.

Blame it on the sunshine,

blame it on the good times,
