Here the artist shows a clever way of integrating a second character into a one-mass medium. The physical fit with each other suggests something nice about their mutual need.

 Item — Box: CFC Statues and Figurines Box 6
Identifier: CFC2019.0192.1

Diaz here gives the dog a very winning personality. It is not hard to believe that this dog had the good sense to set his master's lunch down when the alternative was to fight a pack of dogs while struggling to protect the basket from them.

Bespectacled Turtle Reading Book, 1985

 Item — Box: CFC Statues and Figurines Box 6
Identifier: CFC2019.0099.1
Abstract

My mother and I met this artist and asked her if she ever fashioned fable characters. She asked us to return to the next craft fair with a book of fables from which she could work. At each fair over the next several years, she kept bringing for us a new one-of-a-kind character. Here the tortoise has the fable-book open to the moral.

 Item — Box: CFC Statues and Figurines Box 6

I cannot remember where or when I found this little fellow. One can only presume, I think, that a sleeping hare comes from TH. The pose here is excellent: the hare leans on one arm with his body slanted diagonally.
