The pieces are excellent and I especially like the figures such as Marissa, Playing Hooky or William Bruce. The story behind the Playing Hooky sculpture makes it even more real, it must have been a wonderful gift!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-55550387273339956862012-03-15T18:05:23.560-04:002012-03-15T18:05:23.560-04:00Hilary - If I recall, the Playing Hooky sculpture ...Hilary - If I recall, the Playing Hooky sculpture was commissioned by the grown subject's family, as a surprise for him. They provided Anita photos from his boyhood to give her something to work from. I'm not sure if the family chose the Playing Hooky theme, or if that was Anita's idea. But it turned out wonderfully. <br /><br />I hadn't thought about Frank, but you're right...it could almost be a boyhood portrayal of him.Linda at To Behold The Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07419060763634934217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-30150920430077471052012-03-15T17:00:51.503-04:002012-03-15T17:00:51.503-04:00Those are just fantastic.

Thanks for allowing me to share it with you.<br /><br />Elizabeth - Thank you so much. Photos don't do the sculptures justice. The detail in them is amazing.<br /><br />Keith - I agree with you about "Playing Hooky."
