The editor likes the phrase "turning decay into magic" because it seems to say that nothing in the world is absolutely useless. Its very inspiring, isn't it? Like driftwood, aluminum cans, origami, plastic bags , these things that would be positioned as "garbage" can be given a new life with skillful hands.
Australian artist Elspeth McLean has this wonderful hand. She picked up stones from the seaside. Due to the force of wave erosion, the corners of the stones became rounded and shiny, making them very suitable for painting.
Because Elspeth is good at stippling, round stones are paired with colorful stippling, and a little three-dimensionality makes ordinary stones look like jewelry ~ very beautiful!
If it were the editor, I would definitely pile these stones into a small tower or put them on the table as decorations. I would never bear to throw them away~~
A stone is just a stone, but after Elspeths skillful hands, it becomes art! Do you like this kind of work that "turns decay into magic"?
