Buddhas for Judith

What does Buddha on the power box say? Ohm!

Before I met Ken I had a small house in St Paul.  I had many flowers and wanted a buddha statue.  I saved my pennies and when I returned to the garden center the buddha was gone.  Each time there or any garden center I looked for a buddha.  No buddhas.

 

I had told Ken this story and he listened each time and nodded.  Once when we were doing a pottery show in the cities, he said during a lull that he he was heading down the block to check out the potter shop with a business closing sign.  He was always looking for pottery equipment and tools.

Later I learned it was a casting rather than throwing studio and he had found a buddha.  Because they were closing they insisted he take ALL the buddha molds.  He had them poured and rubbed them with iron oxide. 

 

Ken and Buddha

And so I have MANY buddhas all around the property, thanks to Ken
