"Beautiful beautiful beautiful"
My new blessed mother, Praying Mary, is lovely. I ve been looking forward to her arrival, and she was worth the wait. The packaging thoroughly protected her as she arrived in perfect condition ready for me to enjoy. Now I m trying to decide where to place my new Mary. I also plan on saving artist Juana Ponce to my favorites. I will buy more of her pieces. Thank you, Ms. Ponce.

"Ave Maria!"
Juana Ponce is one of my favorite artists. Her ceramic pieces are beautifully designed and carefully executed.This Praying Mary sculpture is a perfect example of Juanas craft. The colors are vivid but not overpowering., and Marys hands are clasped as in prayer. To me the loveliest quality of the statue is Marys expression. It is beatific and produces a sense of serenity for the viewer. I hung this next to a doorway in my room a little above eye level. There I can look at her blessed face and whisper a prayer each time I pass through the doorway.

"Happy little pot"
I came back to purchase this pot in the strawberry as I have the other color with the blue. The colors are bright and cheerful. I love the Mexican pottery from Novica.
