Artist's Statement
This piece was one of my first experimentation with the lost wax casting technique. The flower was something I crafted unintentionally, just playing with the wax. I created the dog figure first and decided to try and put them together. I grew up around dogs, and I remember them bringing a lot of joy to my family, even while they were just sleeping in our family living room. The combination of the flower and the dog together feels very nostalgic to me, almost like my childhood imagination and memory combined into a a tangible object.
