In Like a Lion and Out Like a Lamb

By Lynn Byrne. I am back!!!  Thank heavens for Denise.

We lost power during a nasty storm last Saturday and it wasn’t fully restored until Wednesday!  No internet.  Then I had a major photo shoot of a large project scheduled for last weekend (more on that later).  Denise stepped in to keep our posts coming.

After that lion of a storm last week, it is now very spring-like.  I am hoping that we are in the lamb phase of March.  Certainly, everywhere I look I am seeing sheep, so my fingers are crossed.

What is the origin of these cuddly lambs?  Original lambs, like the ones in the above picture, are by Claude and Francois-Xavier Lalanne. Francois-Xavier died in December 2008.  In the spring of 2008, one of his sheep achieved $158,500 at auction at Sotheby’s–twice its high estimate.

Think spring everyone.

  1. [...] Rob Stilin did the outside spaces.  Nothing special here.  Perhaps the trellis is a small nod to Sister?  Rob threw in a few sheep and the bird bench by Claude and Francois-Xavier Lalanne.  OK.  But it certainly has been done before.    [...]
