Thank you to Monte Vista Grade School in the Salt Lake City area for inviting me to present my sculpture to a few of their classes. I have a great love for these children, particularly my two grandchildren, Makayla and Perry. The name of the bronze piece is, "The World is Mine". It was on its way from the foundry to a competition. There was a window of opportunity to show and tell, so I did!
"The World is Mine", 24x17x17", is available through Authentique Gallery in St. George, Utah.
Sitting on top of a world filled with unlimited wonders, a boy and a girl sit back to back, engrossed in their study. Through learning about this world, the potential for these children is infinite. My mother would not let us, her children declare that we were bored. “You cannot be bored! Only boring people are bored! You could live a hundred lifetimes and never do the same thing twice. There is more here in this earth to learn about and enjoy than you ever could.” She also taught that the Lord would never create a world that was inadequate for His purposes. This sculpture is for the miracle of the creation of the earth, and my mother’s teachings.
