It begins! Some hours of truly fiddly placements of plants, rocks and squid :-) all of which were of course clicked into their perfect places in time and space, and the application of some new type of as yet unknown resin, AND waiting for 2 weeks for the resin to set completely, it's time for turning!

Now Martin LOVES to turn wood but completely hates turning resin :-) I appreciate the dragon slaying aspect of this endeavour :-)

The squid were going nuts on the lathe when it was turning (there is a video of this somewhere, psycho squid!) which apparently made Martin feel quite nauseous. I shouldn't laugh, really ...

The completed Squid Garden energy artefact!
I love it! :-)

I am loving this object. It is so, so soothing, happy, playful and such a reminder of the "Oceans of Energy," which are quite real, and we can go there, anytime we need it, anytime we want; even a little glimpse brings back a little happiness.
That's precious beyond prize; and just what the energy doctor ordered right here, right now.
The Squid Garden energy artefact was completed on Friday the 13th, 2020.
Perfect, just in time ...
