Boys Will Be Boys

This is my interpretation of wild stallions fighting over possession of a band of mares.  So far this one is fairly non-violent.  There will be more in a series of Wild Horses.

AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER

I am mounting this one on a granite base.  As always, the pictures in the background that I use as models are my own horse Mona.  The photos were take by Joseph Walsh, a wonderful photographer in the San Antonio area.  This one will be completed when I figure out how to polish granite, or decide to take it to someone to have it done.  I would like to learn to do it myself as I would like to use granite and marble as bases for sculptures in the future.  I am still working through this, so will post more when I know more.

I polished the front of the granite base and added carved wood trim to the other three sides of the base.  It won 3rd place in a competition at River Art Gallery and sold to a person from Canada.  It always feels good when someone likes my work enough to buy it.
