The Treasures from Casa Montano

On my last trip to Carlos Montano's studio (just south of Atlanta), I said I would post photos of my purchases once they were hung.  It's been almost two months since that visit, and all of my treasures are still sitting on the bar in the dining room.  As a result, here they are.  Eventually they'll get mounted in their new homes.
                                      
From top left, a little baroque angel's head that is part of a pair; intaglia that Carlos models from the antique marble originals; the "welcome" sign to go above the garage; and an angel that is molded from an original woodcarving from a Guatemalan church.  To give an idea of scale, the welcome sign is 16 by 20.

  3. They are wonderful. It is so nice to have three dimensional things to hang. They look very well done.
