Mike and the Manatees

I thought about making a statue of Mike, the headless chicken, who lived from 1945 until 1947 without a head. Then I thought, "Nah, that one would be guaranteed not to sell." Sometimes I actually do think about the salability of my pieces.
Not often, just sometimes.
I'm working on a manatee piece because I really like them. A few years ago I was sitting on a dock on the Indian river and some manatees saw me and worked their way over to me. It was a magical moment.
