Want to take a moment to express my gratitude for all the likes, comments and reposts of the art I am posting here. I do take the time to reply and send my thanks. I may have missed some however. If so, it was not intentional. Thank you all. I appreciate you.

Thank you Paul. I had this worry that my kids would play with my vintage toy collection. When I showed them the response was, "Dad those look sus." Then went back to their Legos and Light Sabers.

Thank you. Along with the crystal(s), I received number of stones and fossils. Among them is a fossilized whale vertebrae. It is about the size and weight of a bowling ball. Can only imagine how large the whale was. I will take a pic and post for you to see.

I saw this for an art exhibit here in San Francisco.

Thought of your artwork. If you are not in this show, you should be. Your artwork stands out above others. Keep up the great art you do.

Crystal
Minifigure shows size relationship.
A friend left this crystal to me. Said is was powerful. I do not have knowledge regarding crystals. This one seems large to me. Love to get some feed back on this.
