The area that I work is an artsy place from paintings, photography and sculptures. One particular artwork is very interesting and is in full display at a street corner. Surprisingly enough, the sculpture has maintained its integrity. It’s about the love for three different animals: a horse, a monkey and a dog.
These are the friends of Emily Carr and she loved her animals.
“I sat self-contained with dogs, monkey and work; writing into the long dark evenings after painting and loving everything terrifically. In later years my work had some praise and some successes but the outstanding event to me was the doing which I am still at. Don’t pickle me away as done.”
I can relate. I am a farmer, you know. 🙂
What brilliant pieces of work!
Thank you.
Perpetua, I just LOVE this sculpture and I really love her words as you quoted them. “Don’t pickle me away as done” is my new favorite quote and my new motto!!!
Like my motto “I’m in a pickle”. Thank you, Tina. I do, too.
wow fascinating work.
A real work of art. Thank you.
What an amazing sculpture. There’s something so friendly and compelling about it. I like he way you shot specific elements of it, too, but I like it best as a whole.
It is incredible and I never get tired looking at it. And you are right, the whole thing is the best.
Wow, I love that sculpture and what she had to say.
She has menagerie when she was alive.
