Pilgrimage to Carlos Montano's Studio


In alphabetial order Bridget, Carol, Kitty, Lisa, Mike and Rita made another pilgrimage yesterday to Carlos Montano's showroom/studio and, of course, came back with more garden art and less $.  Having given us fair discounts, I think I speak for the group that it was worth the trip.  Wish I'd paid more attention to who bought what because all pieces will be thought of as prized possessions once established in their rightful gardens.  But 'The Book' wins the Most Outstanding Purchase, 'St. Francis' wins the Most Calming, 'The Plaque' wins the Most Wise, and the 'Stepping Stones' order wins the Most Practical.  'Sunflower Feeder' (shown here) wins a second place Most Practical award.  To see more of Carlos' artwork, visit http://casamontanogardenornaments.com/ .  Be sure to check out the Sibley page on his website.  There's a close connection between the Atlanta artist Christine Sibley and Carlos which makes for a great story coming soon to a blog near you.
