Description I had a set of Childcraft Annuls as a child, this was my favorite poem from that set. The joys of public domain poetry!

Sweet job

Love the soft but rich color

Very thought provoking

I love to see story telling done in photography and illustration, but it is rare to see such fine story telling in a sculptor piece.

Well thank you! It is good to see the piece coming across as a story. I was always jealous of how painters get to illustrate things and I figured why can't I do it with sculpture?

Oooh thanks, coming from one of my favorite artists, that is quite an honor! Part of it is a painting. My middle school-esque attempt at making my own background in acrylic. I so wish I could paint well....

Thank you so much! I am honored... I really thought the figures were a painting. It is really nice and well executed!

The poem is odd...
Regardless, you did a beautiful and skillful job of creating the characters and the setting

LOL, thanks, the poem is a bit odd, but I think it is what takes me out of the rules and values of the human world and into the fey....

I always thought the poem captured a bit of the feel of faerie, glad my attempt did a wee bit of the same!
