This is so cool Ephemeral pebble art videos

Distracting myself from ReaLife I google wandered and found this.

Cat Portrait made from Pebbles (a commenter noted that they thought it was actually reversed film of deconstructing the portrait, which makes perfect sense. But thinking it's actually built up this way makes it magical.)

Then I found more about the artist. I now want to make art from rocks. For some years I've been tumbling rocks I salvaged from landscape rocks I removed because I wanted GRASS, not rocks to trip on and skin my knees. On my 3rd tumbler now- I've spent more on tumblers and grit than even semi-precious rocks would be worth and mine are just rocks in various shades of white, gray and brown. BUT they are shiny. :^)

The artist creates ephemeral art from pebbles.

Pebbles make pretty pictures, even if you just arrange them into patterns. I couldn't hope to recreate what pebble-picasso does!

I'm sure there's more to the process than we see. A magician never lets you see behind the mirrors. :^)
