Love the loops as always. I also like the changeups in direction across the front of the sculpture. The way you've had it turn back on itself makes it look like it's running backwards sometimes. The scales are genius - really fun visual take on an old premise. I also like that they don't always let go of all three marbles. Makes things interesting.

Thank you very much! And yes, a little randomness can go a long way. : )
