PHILANTHROPY THROUGH SCULPTURE:
PHILANTHROPY THROUGH SCULPTURE allows patrons to recognize non-profit organizations and the individual employees within those organizations who touch their lives and the lives of others. Commissions or completed works can be donated by a patron in honor of the generosity of members of the non-profit community, or in memory of a loved one. Commissions donated to non-
profits can be fully tax-deductible with the appropriate IRS documentation. For a personal purchase of a sculpture, a portion of the proceeds, up to 40%, will be donated in your honor, by me, or the donation can be made by you and can serve as a tax-deductible cash donation to the organization that has touched your life.
| THE LOVE OF THE STONE
The love of the stone Can be seen in his hands As he touches the rough skin Formed in earth's youth.
He touches like the blind, Fingers sensitive, gentle, Trying to read inside The figure hidden beneath.
He touches like a father, Protector, teacher and shaper, And yet the beginning, The spark of creation.
He touches like a mother Who has nurtured this being From idea to final reality And brought forth its birth To the eyes of the world To last as long as stone.
