I hope in some way in the creation of my animal sculptures that I have been able to capture even a small part of that fascination and beauty.Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.comBlogger44125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-63249943317700642652010-06-03T09:34:00.001-07:002010-06-03T09:37:09.196-07:00THE GEORIOUS IRISE OF SPRING<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBPT5S3yibM7XMaojrAWzukGtqqwdGTVkcH8MZWVZ6LtHG4iGknJ0FlASnJWhPpAZNSKLyvJdo_BeM4HLdOPhBaTU9zdFR6Z_w70cCQYYg2cfyglGC7_rBOBm4Gu5ZPelqOz95aBZvLT6V/s1600/img037.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 264px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478586793511305618" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBPT5S3yibM7XMaojrAWzukGtqqwdGTVkcH8MZWVZ6LtHG4iGknJ0FlASnJWhPpAZNSKLyvJdo_BeM4HLdOPhBaTU9zdFR6Z_w70cCQYYg2cfyglGC7_rBOBm4Gu5ZPelqOz95aBZvLT6V/s400/img037.jpg" /></a> I don't know how that yellow one got in with the blue.<br /><div></div>Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-50385118442418847142010-06-03T09:32:00.000-07:002010-06-03T09:33:57.638-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5RWiQlXJRUccVMMzEiKoCfyhtN6h7QmHMj7YY5cZqG8QjjXQAZrZq7IdAE4d5Wx5jxkvGu724S7KEiNR8TAdyaSSvQaUFWG3mw-7p7-pdB2JzeUy2T7HKScTQ_AFpVCBRiu5Z_ckMNPug/s1600/img036.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 262px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478586446662778258" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5RWiQlXJRUccVMMzEiKoCfyhtN6h7QmHMj7YY5cZqG8QjjXQAZrZq7IdAE4d5Wx5jxkvGu724S7KEiNR8TAdyaSSvQaUFWG3mw-7p7-pdB2JzeUy2T7HKScTQ_AFpVCBRiu5Z_ckMNPug/s400/img036.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div>Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-1220731008785386642010-06-03T09:29:00.000-07:002010-06-03T09:30:25.734-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlHblBs3Tm1GvoRESzpeGxKYzrXTXbE_S2kr6ag8u85U8OK0N-C-eKWMVWKE5J6saQKh4r4qlCtHQhNSZ6vjKSdK_IrgEWH2-866VsqImePNgJiFGyItd9IrCamqnGSruHekmksBC2wpyz/s1600/img035.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 262px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478585559635526978" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlHblBs3Tm1GvoRESzpeGxKYzrXTXbE_S2kr6ag8u85U8OK0N-C-eKWMVWKE5J6saQKh4r4qlCtHQhNSZ6vjKSdK_IrgEWH2-866VsqImePNgJiFGyItd9IrCamqnGSruHekmksBC2wpyz/s400/img035.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div>Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-11065674582707453852010-06-03T09:24:00.000-07:002010-06-03T09:26:55.359-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH0co-92Ex4BvNZs8Opb93TyV5brcAs3yc2C04m67hoBMV9GQJ-kbCrtxnpOCYW4Ol3Wwr0q5Ivjaa-JZuz5PJxxBgvlMtdv3k7hy4ufIJXoN2AIhqe8-xE_aZRcRDI0PgyXBo4_j6eYw4/s1600/img034.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 262px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478584588180549826" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH0co-92Ex4BvNZs8Opb93TyV5brcAs3yc2C04m67hoBMV9GQJ-kbCrtxnpOCYW4Ol3Wwr0q5Ivjaa-JZuz5PJxxBgvlMtdv3k7hy4ufIJXoN2AIhqe8-xE_aZRcRDI0PgyXBo4_j6eYw4/s400/img034.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div>Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-82848402988546781832010-06-03T09:06:00.000-07:002010-06-03T09:19:01.721-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9SbVYUXH9vc4ilYkoVusgJnQaIM6rkW_ny3onxkhQXcyTD61ofNah3d9nGLBqQz1FzkqPpM8Dk9A1qXvFNFeD0at9R7NQOw22RGzIAnpSDjx6aB72YfWAI_8BZtaq88BvfjeVbeKE827_/s1600/img033.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 264px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478579980163028738" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9SbVYUXH9vc4ilYkoVusgJnQaIM6rkW_ny3onxkhQXcyTD61ofNah3d9nGLBqQz1FzkqPpM8Dk9A1qXvFNFeD0at9R7NQOw22RGzIAnpSDjx6aB72YfWAI_8BZtaq88BvfjeVbeKE827_/s400/img033.jpg" /></a> Each morning I go out to put chowder in his run, and I'm so thankful for the beauty of our earth that the Lord has given us to live on.

They were done by Alvin Marshall, They are carved from Utah Alabaster, and each one is one piece of stone. They also have a story that is told on each one. Alvin is and American Indian who lives in the four corners country. He only sculpts pieces that represent His own people.

Breath out the poisons of tension, stress, and worry; breath in the power of God. Send forth little silent prayers of goodwill toward those you meet. Walk with a sense of being a part of a vast universe. Consider the thousands of mile of earth beneath your feet; think of the limitless expanse of space above your head. Walk in awe, wonder, and humility. Walk at all times of the day. In the early morning when the world is just waking up. Late at night under the stars. Along a busy city street at noontime.<br /><br />Wiferd PetersonDolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-60651745025208520322010-01-15T14:50:00.002-08:002010-01-15T15:17:11.318-08:00BERBER BRIDE FROM MORROCO<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVK6mLq4_U5_00DeqRs2DFCyEEFytwO58wMw8a-M4ZRhFQw0rOW7tdjdGDIdoQADuwPfiuzfaSSPaSILScV1b2AaZmH2TSSF5YjPxKcRoYVc1hhYyYXj2apw71NEzQBEnsxszMTQz0aLNz/s1600-h/IMG_0090.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427102980125912706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 334px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVK6mLq4_U5_00DeqRs2DFCyEEFytwO58wMw8a-M4ZRhFQw0rOW7tdjdGDIdoQADuwPfiuzfaSSPaSILScV1b2AaZmH2TSSF5YjPxKcRoYVc1hhYyYXj2apw71NEzQBEnsxszMTQz0aLNz/s400/IMG_0090.JPG" border="0" /></a> <div>I took this picture out of the National Geographic magazine, With all her bangles and beads I just had to paint her.</div>Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-69867233755935472612010-01-15T14:50:00.001-08:002010-01-15T15:10:18.497-08:00A WALK ON THE BEACH<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvSW1-TDMtz02b0FptJdb53AiTLi05lzWV0t9m78D_mJjpXckfCGURIc2LenC8s0g73ya2bMIzOOsIBnK8VteteGIz9m4RZ2-aRMQ2bo0vJCfJc3gLwU1_1_FFEmT-JIF_oXMc0FRfMvgE/s1600-h/IMG_0092.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427102773853210066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 303px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvSW1-TDMtz02b0FptJdb53AiTLi05lzWV0t9m78D_mJjpXckfCGURIc2LenC8s0g73ya2bMIzOOsIBnK8VteteGIz9m4RZ2-aRMQ2bo0vJCfJc3gLwU1_1_FFEmT-JIF_oXMc0FRfMvgE/s400/IMG_0092.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>We were down in California when I saw <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">this</span> pelican on the beach.

She is now all most sixteen and still just as cute. She loves to sing and does a very good job. She lives close to me so I get to see her once in a while. She has two older brothers that look after her, and a mom that takes good care of her. Shes a sweet heart, we all love her. <br /><div></div>Dolloreshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06961298254071191834noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-186006706826597527.post-59547657468340549932010-01-10T22:56:00.000-08:002010-01-15T15:03:35.845-08:00MILLENIU FIERS SUN AND SMOKE<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIEgDfWrgq3HWUP-tv4TxScIMxmtMFIyR5OJT-tuHfZJTlsYprLOCRjTNjcxG96KvsKqF7dW1sgp3OXMogBPhR33iK8pcJOBXZ-cAfJyf8skIR9y67R-LK39-Po_mnZiIGcSs4s1u0yobW/s1600-h/IMG_0094.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427101694943783202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 285px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIEgDfWrgq3HWUP-tv4TxScIMxmtMFIyR5OJT-tuHfZJTlsYprLOCRjTNjcxG96KvsKqF7dW1sgp3OXMogBPhR33iK8pcJOBXZ-cAfJyf8skIR9y67R-LK39-Po_mnZiIGcSs4s1u0yobW/s400/IMG_0094.JPG" border="0" /></a> One year we had terrible wildfires in our state and this is the way the sky looked.
