Got to thinking about what Joey pointed out about the edges of the rockwork looking wrong..

I am also more use to seeing these painted differently. But after browsing a few large garden examples, I think the artist painted this contemplation stone in the style of some much larger garden rocks like the attached.

Beautiful rocks !
