This sculpture, which is part of my personal collection, is the first in a series exploring the emotion of GRATITUDE. She is the cornerstone sculpture for my Center for Creative Arts, in Jordan, Minnesota. Her name came from a meditaion and reading that I did in 1999 during a Barbara Kobe Dollmaking as Healing class ( http://www.barbkobe.com )
While I do not take orders, I do plan on creating more pieces in the GRATITUDE SERIES. Contact me at maureen@weefolk.com if you would like to be notified of future offerings in this series.
