Sculptor / Painter Kelly Borsheim's Blog: Buona Pasqua

Dear Art Lover,

I want to wish you a very happy Easter weekend. ("Buona Pasqua" means "happy Easter" in Italian.) Whatever the significance this religious holiday has for you personally, I hope that you can appreciate the general concept of good triumphing over horror, and new life returning to us.

     I will be working in Italy until June when I return to the States for this bronze casting project and even some stone carving. Yes, that is right.... THANK YOU for a successful Kickstarter art project crowd funding event!

However, if you are curious at all about how Florence, Italy, celebrates Easter, I have a couple of blog posts that you may find fun.
     The Explosion of the Cart [what one of my friends calls "A Willy Wonka production"]:

and the blessing of the relic [and thank you to one of our 36 pledgers, Lili Baehr, who met me in Firenze years ago and told me of this service]:

     Be safe, be loving, and thank you again for your generosity and warmth.
