sleeping muse, 1909-10, marble, via tate modern

la muse, 1912, marble, via guggenheim

. . . one of my very favorite things: sculptures!

i'll take them in stone, metal, wood or glass - sleek, simple, a little abstract & full of curiousity! + great quote below by brancusi, i love the "pure joy" part - so very true. 

hope you've enjoyed!

"Don't look for obscure formulas or mystery in my work. It is pure joy that I offer you. Look at my sculptures until you see them. Those closest to God have seen them."  -  constantin brancusi
