    Oh gosh. I don't even know what to say about this one. It is so unexpected, and magical, and full of wonder. Gallery caliber sculpture, meant to nestle right there under the throat. Magique!

    Oh yes, definitely gallery-worthy loveliness! To me, it looks like a wee snow bunny curiously popping his head out of a mound of fresh snow 🙂

    You are a wonder, Jillian!

    I wish that you could hear my response. I'll attempt to transcribe:

    "Oh, Jillian."
    gasp
    sigh
    bigger sigh
    "That makes me want to cry"

    Alex says that I couldn't wear it. My response? I'll hang it on the wall.

    Oh my gosh.

    I am coming to Plume Gables. I must. I want to see you in action.

    And I want to hug you.

    Snowshoe hare in blown snow;
    All is silent. Wisps of red allude to the coming spring.

    Or?

    Wondrous work, friend!

    Oo La La! magical, and mysterious, indeed. i like "the quiet ones".. and i think the piece requests/imparts a sort of calm, quiet, listening.

    Ah Jillian I love the new bunny piece, it makes me think of winter and the snow bunnies, kind of reminds me of a fluffy snowbunny jumping out of his hidden secret spot in the snow. Love it
