Je T Aime I Love You (Figurine)

In any language, it’s you I love
My daughter lives in France, so I ve traveled there quite a bit in the last few years. I enjoy the art and architecture, the gorgeous countryside, learning the language It s truly a culture of romance. So in sculpting Je t aime, a piece about love, I wanted it to have a little more style and mystique a sophistication, an elegance. I made changes to the dress extending sleeves and neckline. I love the challenge of starting with a solid, opaque, hard surface, and carving and carving until it looks like embellished lace. The extensive carving makes Je t aime unique in the line. Although influenced by France, Je t aime is universal. The sentiment moves from the universal, to the personal one-on-one. In any language, it s you I love.
