with earthy

I'm not sure if made to be shot from a toy bow and arrow or just for their own sake but either way perhaps carved by a boy scout

with some black stain from postmark on the one with crossed rosebuds

with color form triangles that rotate over top

I take him for a runner--and this photo makes me think of the loneliness of a long distance one

Nice Old Barbed Wire Ball, Found in Kansas City old copper box with earthyI found a large barbed wire ball a few years ago, but this is the first I've come across since in Kansas City, which seems a logical place to find a barbed wire ball! I like these as object and sculpture, making me think of both tumbleweeds and of Meret Oppenheim! Tightly wound, and with rusting to the wire, but this one not aggressively sharp. About 7 1 2" widest diameter. Good, tightly wound and very sound condition.
