'I find these stones on the shores of the Conero National Park on the Adriatic coast of Italia. I know I shouldn't steal them but they have such delicious shapes that I find them irresistible. And when I have them back home, I find painting them irresistible too.

My collection continues to grow and my painted stones are now splattered all over the house and gradually over friends houses too.

Little markers of my journey in life, little memos and transformations'.
