Over 70 different bronze sculptures are available by her husband, Dave Hodges. The gallery also offers a unique selection of Navajo rugs, Navajo jewelry, unusual books and fine pottery.

Dave Hodges graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana in 1979. He began sculpting as a career in 1982 and has been commissioned to create sculptures for several large corporations as gifts to their international clients.

His work is currently carried in galleries throughout the United States, including the Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs. Articles on his work have been published in Southwest Art magazine and Western Horseman magazine.

Dave is also an oil painter of landscapes of the western region. His work has received awards at the following shows: Willamette Western Art Show, Salem, OR; American National Miniature Show, Laramie, WY; Western Regional Art Show, Cheyenne, WY; National Miniature Show, La Luz, NM.

He recently completed a bust of a pilot for the Northwest Airline Flight Training Center in Minneapolis and was commissioned to create a bust of opera star, Marilyn Horne, which was installed at the University of Pittsburgh in March of 2002. His life size statue of a running horse, "Free Spirit" enhances the City Park in Big Timber, Montana.
