Taylor Posted by Hello


Alma Lesch was a great admirer of Marvin Finn's sculpture. His signature 'rooster' being one in her private collection upon her passing in 1999.
Taylor, while still a pre-schooler, was given a button necklace made by Alma when she visited Kentucky early in the 90s. Alma enjoyed Taylor's summer visit and remarked on the creative focus Taylor demonstrated in the shade of our neighboring back yard art activities of painting, constructing sculpture from plant materials and working on a series of plaster chocolate mold Santa forms.
