American Toy Story

This is a hard sculpture for me to write about. It has so many meanings. It is about the toys our children play with. It is about the knight in shining armor, the fallen warrior. It is about change. Remember when the "Power Rangers" were perceived as too violent for our children; it seems not to be that way anymore. We seem to become desensitized to violence as there is so much of it on television. Sometimes I slip a notch when I remember the stories from the parents that lost their sons and daughters in combat. It makes me look deeper into where it all starts--this is one of those moments.

"Only the dead have seen the end of war."
