Hi Peter... That is a very nice daiza for the hut stone, and it is a good object lesson. The Japanese daiza carver almost never adds an element to visually support a LANDSCAPE VIEW (including hut & boat stones) contour, but for hut stones there is an often-encountered exception.

As Peter shows, if a hut stone does not have a natural "floor" under the eave of a prominent roof line, it is considered elegant to supply that floor in the plainest carving possible. Peter's stone has a stone floor on the side we see facing left, but it appears to end (or it can tuck under) the hut's wall on the right, so Peter adds a simple floor under the eave toward the right (as we face the stone).

Hi Vlado

If a coastalstone is a isogata ishi, you could very well be right

Kind regards Yvonne

Yvonne makes a subtle distinction when using Japanese categories to describe Vlado's stone. A coastal rock & a shore stone
describe different aspects of a seascape.

The isogata-ishi ("shore stone") should be focused on the shoreline-- a sea/land margin-- more than on a substantially-rising landscape formation. The typical isogata-ishi is relatively flat; it and might express a shallow reef or sandbar at the shoreline-- either exposed or over-washed by water. Alternatively, though still typically low in height, the isogata-ishi expresses a rocky shoreline where waves break along a ragged edge-- a remote & lonely place.

Arguably, Vlado's stone has significance in height and presence above its base to suggest focus on form. That might be perceived as an iwagata-ishi ("coastal rock/massive rock") standing on/near the shoreline as a single, exposed geologic formation.

The shimagata-ishi ("island stone") is distinctly different from these closer landscape views as a distantly-viewed, mountain-peaked island surrounded by sea.

Another recurring suiseki form is the domon, which is often read as "archways in water" or as a suimon "water gateway" by Jim Greaves in his series on tunnel, cave and window stones in an insightful series of California Aiseki Kai articles.

Hi Chris
Thank you for explanation and guidance.
I am still a beginner in susieki art.

Nice day for all.
