Mosaic Series - Lost & Found

192012 - Our Broken Toys  -  by Lindsay Daniel

Thinking of the gifts we gave long ago - once favored, then worn, ragged and broken.  Like told in "The Velveteen Rabbit", it only shows they were loved.

These lost toys of our children's lives were found between sofa pillows or in the heating vent.  I saved them all in bags for some strange reason.....future something?  A decade later I formed this junk sculpture with these broken toys, covering a Grandfather Clock form.  Like an album of photographs it tells about their time.   It was good, full of laughter, and we feel blessed.  This is what sacred means.
