Drystone dyker
Friday, February 22nd, 2008The sale of the week this time around is this self portrait! Yes, I used to be a drystone dyker (or waller for those south of the border) and earned my living for a decade practicing this fine rural craft. Hopefully, I can still remember how to do it as I’m about to start landscaping our new garden! The image was licenced via Alamy for a magazine sold in South Africa. For anyone interested in learning more about drystone dyking visit the Dry Stone Walling Association of Great Britain.
