In Memory of Alex, my American Eskimo companion of 16 years. After living a full, active life,
Alex slowed down a little in his later years. Often after coming home from work I would find him
sleeping on a pillow in my closet. He probably felt secure in the enclosed area since his hearing
was failing.

One day a couple of years ago I had gotten a new sculpting tool and couldn't wait to try it out.
So I grabbed a nearby lump of white clay and before I even realized what I was doing, Alex was
coming alive in my hands. When I closed my eyes, I could see him as clear as day. This is the
sculpt that emerged.

I miss you boy.
