  1. The Vitlycke bridal couple is a 3,000-year-old rock carving that portrays a man and woman standing close together, perhaps captured in a sacred wedding rite. Set within the Tanum World Heritage area of Sweden, these figures join a vast Bronze Age tapestry of petroglyphs depicting hunting, sailing, farming, war, and acts of devotion.

  2. A before and after picture since I have finally started showing stones I have carved since being on Mastodon. The pencil marks are where I hoped to carve but that sometimes changes on the finished stone. The finished stone has a light coat of polyurethane applied to contrast the carving. Much like wetting a stone to bring out it's colors. It's approx. 4.5" long, 3.5" wide and 2 inches high. (11.4 by 8.8 by 5 cm).
