Photograph - Chrysocolla, Malachite, And Copper Stone
Description
When I saw this stone, I had to have it to incorporate into a future encaustic painting.
As I gazed at it,
I saw the cutest little bear,
with a black nose and black ear,
sitting on his hind legs.
I saw blue water
and rocks along the shore...
Of course, it’s all my imagination because this is really a chrysocolla-malachite stone I got while on vacation in Arizona earlier this month. Blue chrysocolla, copper silicate, blended with green malachite and copper carbonate. I’m told this stone is found in the oxidation zone of Copper deposits and was discovered in Arizona, the leading copper producing state in the 1700s.
The chrysocolla stone is associated with serenity, tranquility, peace, patience, tolerance, acceptance, unconditional love, meditation, calmness, hope, gentleness, and sensitivity.

Thanks Nicole... this stone really fascinated me... I just love it. In fact, the stone is larger than shown here; it actually has both the Lone Canoe image at its bottom. I scanned the stone and cropped out two separate images for artistic purposes. I really appreciate your interest and your comments, my friend!
