PS Yes, we’ve seen the Bachelor in it’s beginning episodes – does what you’re working on have to do with film or TV? Hope you quys will all be able to pull it together and make a go of it:):)

The amount of preparation must be huge – gathering rubbish, sorting into colour and size, and then turning it into a work of art

I read lynx and my mind went straight back to that encounter I had a few years back. This sculpture is amazing. Only passed through Lisbon airport, but never visited the city.

Oh, my, that’s eye-catching, but if I ever saw a lynx that big and that color (or regular size and that color), I’d be high-tailing away as quickly as possible. Perhaps in Iberia it’s different, though. 🙂
I did wonder what you would have for this theme but never imagined this. See you soon.
