Inspired by a whimsical table by Judy Kensley McKie in the permanent collection of the Currier Museum of Art, with two dogs under a glass top, and the work of Ruth Bloch, an Israeli artist whose work I saw on a trip to St. Paul de Vence, in Provence, France, interpretive figures with graceful lines. Basically, these were chance encounters leading to some cool ideas, thus the theme and the title.
