That is stunning. it has all the fluidity of a moving horse. Fab.
I'm off down to Greenwich on Monday, to watch the equestrian stuff. My sister is down there as equine physio for Team GB. She has got tickets for me, my nieces and brother. Should be a good day out. Hopefully, will get to meet up with her. Usually, when I go with her to other equine events, I get to go backstage so as to speak. Not sure with security I will this time. Will still manage a Pimms lol and think of you whilst drinking it Pimm. :o))

that's gone straight into faves. It looks alive, alert, ready to go - a lot of "horse" scultpures I've seen are more abstract than actual. lovely work. You say it's a weekend's work, Pim, do you know the artist?
