Since it is getting close to Easter, I wanted to talk about one of my Easter pieces. This is "April and May" by Tom Wolfe from the Cairn Studios. As you know, I have been collecting gnomes since I was in the 4th grade. Those were made by Tom Clark in his Cairn Studios. Tom Wolfe was an artist that worked in the studio that often collaborated with Clark on pieces. Wolfe's specialty was animals so whenever you see a Cairn piece that has both gnomes and animals, chances are it was a collaboration between the two artists. This, however, is solely a Wolfe piece.
Mom gave me this sometime in the early 90's. Every year I got several Cairn Studio pieces, and I had never received any of the animals before. I absolutely love it. I use it every year to decorate for Easter. Sometimes it is my centerpiece. Sometimes I use it around the house somewhere. But they are always out to help me celebrate the holidays. I hope it get them out this weekend as I prepare for Easter. I'm not sure where I will use them, but rest assured that they will be displayed!
