Value: $827.00 plus tax & shipping This sculpture is represented by the Giddens Gallery of Fine Art, Grapevine, TX This sculpture takes me back to the days when I was young and one of the things I loved to do was to hike in American Fork Canyon or Provo Canyon at Mount Timpanogos. I loved the crunch of the twigs and leaves, the shade from the sun, and the breeze of the clear mountain air. When I hiked in either canyon, I could often hear the sound of a river close by. It was so relaxing and peaceful.
This photo was taken by Tommy Butler while hiking in the mountains by Cache Valley in northern Utah. The scene is very much the same, and this sculpture brings back many good memories of those hikes.
