Je T’Aime (I Love You)

My Daughter Lives In France, So I’Ve Traveled There Quite A Bit In The Last Few Years. I Enjoy The Art And Architecture, The Gorgeous Countryside, Learning The Language… It’S Truly A Culture Of Romance. So In Sculpting This Piece About Love, I Wanted It To Have A Little More Style And Mystique… A Sophistication, An Elegance… I Made Changes To The Dress — Extending Sleeves And Neckline. I Love The Challenge Of Starting With A Solid, Opaque, Hard Surface, And Carving And Carving Until It Looks Like Embellished Lace. Although Influenced By France, Je T’Aime Is A Universal Piece. The Sentiment Moves From The Universal, To The Personal One-On-One. ‘In Any Language, It’S You I Love.'” —Susan Lordi
