My son and I stood outside of the Karlson Gray Gallery completely in awe of a gigantic bronze Rabbit sculpture in their window.  The storefront had the appearance of "Look, but don't touch", and I being conscious of that..made no attempt to enter with my 3 year old.  

Appearances can be deceiving.  The curator at this gallery was amazing.  Incredibly personable, friendly, charming...he welcomed/ urged us in with the greatest smile and encouragement.  And it was here that I fell in love...the heart can not lie when it has fallen hard....

Art is subjective..what is beauty to one can be dismal to others...what I saw..what I wanted..what was not within my reach was a bronze sculpture of 3 rabbits dancing with their hands joined...it spoke of such true happiness and joy to me that my heart was bursting..I wanted that sculpture like no tomorrow.  I am hoping that my husband will read this review and perhaps find a way to purchase it for me someday for my secret garden.

The bonus of our visit..meeting the sculptor herself, Georgia Gerber  who is somewhat of a local celebrity.  I've met many famous people in my life, but I have no idea why this one made me feel so giddy.
