Long story short – had a chance meeting with “Son of the Sculptor” David Hayes while traveling down rt 81 south of Wilkes-Barre PA.
I noticed (what at first I thought was some scrap – only because I was too far away) a pickup truck carrying a sizable sculpture. After tailing and otherwise harassing the person driving I convinced him to pull into a rest stop so that I could have a closer look. It was then I was introduced to “Son of the Sculptor” David Hayes.
We had a great conversation about his dad and his work and the efforts being taken to share this incredible collection with others. I was overwhelmed by the generosity of David and the book he shared with me. I have been telling this story to all of my friends and I am extremely grateful for the meeting.
I have included a link to his site that contains tons of information about him and his work. I hope you all take the time to have a look. www.davidhayes.com
