Three of my favourite motifs. Visually, they are very tempting to use together. Also, they represent different stages in processes and materials- stones and leaves are after all both raw materials that transform into each other and back again within vast cycles of time. And a book, or a book-shaped form, that might suggest language, or story, and other modes we use to try and understand our place in the world, somewhere between stones and leaves.
