Growing Up With Alice

By Bridgette | March 27, 2018 |

This weekend I took my daughter and granddaughter to see the sculpture at Deep in The Heart Art Foundry. Many don’t know that I have spent six years of my life creating this art. The first years were spent formulating the idea and trying to sell it to my client.  My granddaughter is five.  Which means she grew up with the sculpture. Pouring over photographs I can see just how apparent that is.

My granddaughter has grown up with the creation of this sculpture.

Issa looks for the hidden things. It is my first time seeing the interaction of a child with my art. It is just what I was after.
