Trappings Show Entries

Recommended Posts

It's been so long since I posted any pictures of any of my work. Between moving into my new space here in downtown Prescott, and putting out fires from repairs and other custom things neglected in the process, it's been a wild ride. Heck, it ain't over yet!

ANyway, here are a couple of pair of boots I did up for the upcoming 21st Annual Trappings of the American West Show, opening this next Saturday the 12th, and running through Feb.19, 2012 here at Prescott's Phippen Museum.

One pair is #3 in my series of Arizona Flag motif designs:

A Black French Calf Full Cut with a graft of tooling leather embellished with the AZ Flag waving on it's pole, and trimmed out in Red Kangaroo.

Another pair is Tan Ostrich on Bone Silky Water Buffalo from Garlin Neuman, in a Triad design. The pulls, trim and scroll stitch pattern are done in Wedgewood blue.

I also entered the attached 18" Stove Pipe Plainsman in Brown Beaumont from Horween, with it's Cathedral stitch pattern. This one is from last year, a job which was never picked up by the customer. raphy
