In late November, 2016, Kristen Visbal received a call from a dear friend. They had worked together long ago when she had apprenticed in "lost wax casting" art casting. She
had a client who needed a woman artist to sculpt a little girl. She didn’t say where and she didn’t say why, but she suggested that she should speak with this man as it
would be good for her career. Her voice gave her pause and she consented to take the call.
Sworn to secrecy, she was sent an image of a tiny little girl standing in front of Charging Bull, the iconic Wall Street sculpture. They needed the clay model by December 31st in
order to cast it in time for International Women’s Day March 8th. How exciting! She was in! She could SEE her and she could do it! She had placed her "Girl Chasing Butterflies"
at the Merrill Lynch corporate headquarters in Plainsboro, NJ in the late 90’s to celebrate Women’s History Month so, this was right up her alley. She considered it an honor
to use her work to celebrate women. She imagined the public surprise and smiled. Oh! This was going to be so much fun!
