Dreaming of Tomatoes, my second sculpture of a dachshund, was the first to be cast in bronze. In this MS version I tweaked the hip to give it a bit more definition. Collectors have sited her on a hearth, on a window seat, on a couch -- and on the arm of a couch -- anywhere one might find a lovely lady nestled peacefully. Each is crafted by hand, one at a time, signed, numbered and include my mark, Joy Beckner artist of fine sculpture. Enjoy!
