We had a wonderful surprise today! Years ago a couple bought a pair of bronze bear sconces from us when we were exhibiting our work at the Adirondack Museum in upstate New York. They were from New Hampshire. Well, today, to the surprise of us all(!) they walked into our gallery in Gardiner, Montana. They're taking a long road trip, from New Hampshire to California. They drove by our gallery and the painting in the window caught their eye, so they stopped in.... not knowing this was our new gallery. What a great coincidence - really nice people! So they bought John's fox sculpture to use as a hood ornament. Now that's creativity!! The little bronze fox is riding into the sunset, off on his first road trip. That lucky fox!
