These stones are known on the beaches of the Cote d'Azure, mainly found from Nice and beyond. Most people find them ugly and clumsy. They hurt your feet! Actually I think these simple stones with a variety of shades of grey have a special raw beauty. The shape of these stones are formed by the salty sea water and pushing it back and forth through the rough seas. Even old bits of glass and pieces of old ceramics are between. Those stones make history. Some are called flints. It is undoubtedly the most common type of boulder. Flints are also rich in fossils. It's worth it to pick them up and observe them from all sides. Only specialists work can distinguish many species. Mostly they are just grey unbreakable simple stones. What I find funny is that most snobs there do anything for shopping expensive jewelry with overrated crystal stones. While the most beautiful old stones are just lying around at the entire coast of the Cote d'Azure. Each with a centuries true old story.
Surrounded by these stones I began searching for beautiful egg-shaped oval and round shaped stones. Just like a perfect soap mold. I was just tired of reading all the fashion magazines. And began to draw well known fashion logos, followed by Brigit Bardot eyes and some little abstract sketches. You can expect a sequel to this. It was so wonderful brainstorming on the beach.
