A nice surprise - art show results

Recommended Posts

A while back I had this crazy idea I wanted to be a horse sculptor, so I did a figure of an Andalusian stallion and a couple of others. A friend, who is an artist himself, suggested I enter it in a guild show. I wasn't too optomistic since there were 3 professional sculptors showing too, but, low and behold, I got best of show for my first effort. Here's a picture (still haven't made my light box, so the quality is poor) and another of a Morgan circus horse, I'd like to cast in resin for a pair of bookends.

I've since lost interest in sculture, but I have something cool for my bookshelf anyway

Wow Ian....I'm really impressed! Something I've wanted to try for years and will probably never get around to. That is beautiful!

Beautiful work, Ian! Doing work like that is entirely beyond my comprehension.

Thanks for the nice words folks. I forgot to mention, it's not bronze as it appears to be, but Sculpey Clay painted with spray paint and antiqued with acrylic paint.

Ian,

Very nice work. I have been known to admire sculptures of horse and such for hours at museums and shows.

Regards,

Ben
