"Mexico Bench"

 


                                          




















                                                  "Mexico Bench" Playa Del Carmen, Mexico
                                                                  Watercolor 12"x14" $225

A family trip bought us to Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. I love working with stone especially on site in places that express the creativity of the people who live there. Mexico has some of the most highly skilled, creative people on earth. In an alcove of a collection of small houses condensed in the busy city, this concrete and stone bench gave passers by a place to rest and absorb life. There was so much silence in this place. And within the surrounding stone, an unknown craftsman took the time to make a relatively basic stone bench and alcove into a unique architectural place full of silence.
