Stone faces that crack me up (and appear in Ruby)...

Hello dear friends,

Two more weeks until the release of The Ruby Notebook!  In celebration, I thought I'd post some pics of endearing stone faces that appear above doors and windows in Aix-en-Provence.  As you'll notice when you read Ruby, these faces inspired some of the faces in the book...

bushy-eyebrowed jester guy...


lewd-yet-stern guy who ate something less than appetizing...


pleasant, mild-mannered guy (or gal?)...


scaredy-cat lion...


clueless lady (huh? wha-?)...


devilish-yet-desperate-to-please guy...


pin-headed bald guy (pigeon-poop-deterrent)...


jailed-yet-jovial guy...


Mr. Grumpers...


mischievous laughing guy...

catchin' flies guy...


That's all for now!  Stay tuned for more photo posts about Ruby inspiration...

xoxo,
Laura
