Oh My Darling Clementine Wood Sculpture





I still had the tiny wooden crate that contained January's Darling Clementines citrus. There is something Renaissance about the ultramarine blue and orange. The "Darling Clementines" printed on wood is too cool to toss, so I took it to the studio.

A fruit crate, tiny brass hinges. even smaller brass screws, a wooden artist's manniquin, and a song.....

What emerged is a Clementine Valentine angel for my sweetheart.

It is wonderful when you have the gift to see and use something, other would not have shed a glance.
