Gloucester’s talented artist, Kris Francis has a couple of new amazing sculptures.  Kris’s work always amazes me, but these Giraffes actually made me emotional.

Kris told me that he has been working on the Giraffes since February.  Kris also stated it took 2,000 horseshoes to make these beautiful sculptures.  Kris is truly a talented artist.
