Turtle Tchotchke Tuesday

A ceramic sculpture by Molly Heizer.


His underside.

We had seen a turtle by Ms. Heizer in the Canyon Road Contemporary gallery a few trips to Santa Fe ago. When we were there in August we asked Nancy if they had any turtles of hers. They didn't but it turns out that Molly would be in the gallery later in the day. Perhaps we could see if she could make one for us. We went back and met with Molly. She told us she could make some turtles and send us pictures. No obligation.

A few weeks ago we got pictures of two turtles. We chose this one.

I love this one! His striped turtleneck is very becoming.

One of the nicest turtles in the herd.
