Finally all the LITTLE BUDDHAs are ready to go. I am helping the Dahl curator layout the show next Wednesday. We are thinking of displaying these LITTLE BUDDHAs near the entry and having them welcome all the visitors. The opening reception of the show is scheduled for next Friday, 5-7 pm. Hope to see many of you there.
 My sculptures were delivered to the Dahl yesterday. What a relief it was to find out that none of my pieces was damaged in transit! Five more LITTLE BUDDHAs have to be colored before the show. Here is the first one with my original design.
This is the last LITTLE BUDDHA that goes with Darrel Nelson's drawing. It will be interesting to see how the actual pieces will look next to each other.
Tomorrow is my big day, as I am delivering my sculptures (all except 5 LITTLE BUDDHAs) to the Dahl. The necessary packing and photographing are finally done. I am going for a walk now. Here is another piece inspired by Darrel Nelson's drawing.
Inspired by Darrel Nelson's drawing THE WAY THE WORLD IS.
Inspired by Darrel Nelson's color pencil drawing MAKING SENSE OF IT ALL.
My show partner Darrel Nelson's pattern (the image on the right) was repeated on the dress. There are four more like this, whose dress patterns and colors were inspired by Darrel's drawings.
 This new style of LITTLE BUDDHA was developed to feature night creatures. Do you see a bat hanging upside down from his left hand?
 So far I have made standing and sitting Little Buddhas. With this reclining one added to the series, 11 of them will be displayed at the upcoming show. The first two have been already bisque-fired. I will be busy coloring the buddhas from now on.
The one on the right will have a baby bird perching on his sleeve. I'll make one more and will call it enough.
