As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.
~ Kahlil Kibran
This piece was a venture into self-indulgent abstract work.
Review from a customer: “I touch this sculpture and I feel my man. I feel him enveloping my body with his strength. I feel arms that protect me and that at the same time reveal my sexuality. My sexuality blossoms, my nakedness does not embarrass me because I feel his love.”
- these are the words of a woman who was gifted Surrender by her lover.

... To melt and be like a running brook
that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own under-
standing of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
~ Kahlil Kibran

...give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit ...

I like to sit by the fire and stare
At the curious things I can see in there;
It’s better than pictures in a picture book
To sit by the fire and look and look.
~ Irene and Aubrey de Selincourt

On every leaf of every tree
A fairy sat and smiled at me.
~ Rose Fyleman
The bronzes of Eloise and Zoë were sculpted by modelling real-life sisters. Born 2 years apart, they remain inseparable. The girl who modelled for Eloise has a quiet, thoughtful nature. As an accomplished painter herself, she was sympathetic to the sculpting process and intrigued by the finished bronze.
We can see that she and her sister, Zoë are engrossed in conversation.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.
~ Robert Frost

If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
~ Kipling
Anna Weightman usually begins by sculpting the nude. This enables accurate depiction of the shapes and attitude. She dresses the finished nude as the last process so cloth drapes naturally on the body.
In the case of Alexander, both nude and clothed versions are available.

She was saved from prettiness by the intensity of her gaze.
~ Paul Bowles
The sculpting process is a long one, arduous for the model. She worked hard to maintain this twist in her body. As a professional model, Rebecca is sought after for her stoical approach to discomfort.

Stories are verbal acts of hospitality.
~ Eugene H. Peterson
Sculpting in clay is a delightfully slow process.
Anna and Emma enjoyed spending time together. The modelling process is a hospitable invitation to discover ideas and explore emotional landscapes.
The thoughtful gaze of Emma was carefully realised by Anna from the clever thoughts Emma was considering - the stuff of trust and friendship.
