This new addition to our sculptural line up caused serious birth pains. Over 370 hours of labor to be exact. "Peanut Butter" was first conceived in Casey's head while in college at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 1997. Fast forward 13 years later, after learning the skills he would need to take on such a complex project and inlisting the welding talent of our foreman Mike Richardson, his dream is now a reality. "Peanut Butter" made her debut at the Willow Walk sculpture show in Burlington, NC this June and was purchased by the Alamance Arts Council and a private donor. She will now reside at the future Children's Museum of Alamance County in Graham, NC. The museum is set to open in 2011 and will feature more of our work in the sculpture garden.
