What a lovely collection of statues. Do you by chance have any information of who made the dark statue of St. Joseph sitting cross legged with Mary and Jesus in his arms? I saw one like it with St. Anne and St. Joachim at a church in Clayton, NC but no one could tell me anything about who made it.

I gave up trying to find the artist to this particular statue when I first posted this article but I will look into it again

I put a note up on my “faith” pinterest page and someone sent a reply. the artist is Timothy P. Schmalz. The title of the piece is “A Quiet Moment” and here is a site that has table top versions of it.
