Inspiration

We've been traveling these past couple of years. I haven't had much time to create sculptures of my own but I have enjoyed seeing others work along our way. Anytime we can we take in an art museum. Also, anytime I can, I seek out horse sculptures in the area to study and just enjoy. It's inspiring.

I wanted to share my updated album of those sculptures with you:

Busy busy

Believe it or not I've had a little bit of time and managed to finish painting 3 horses. The Nevada has already been sold, The Donkey Foal is currently for sale, and the Draft Resin will be for sale shortly.

I'm going to be doing a bit more traveling before the end of the year so will only have a couple more weeks in the studio. Chances are I won't complete anything else, but I will sure try!

Until then, please take a peek at what's new.

Dapple Grey Arabian Optime resin by DeeAnn Kjelshus for sale!

Somethings brewing

I've had just a wee bit of time in the Studio and I have a few things brewing!! And by the mess you can see the time wasn't spent cleaning it! ;-)

Watch here, or join my Yahoo group for details. :)

And another NAN win

It's too exciting for me not to report these wins. Sorry they aren't all in one post but they are showing up sporadically.

This one was the Custom Pony I did as a NAN auction donation in 2002.

She is shown as “Sweetie Pie” by Shelley Hogle
She won Reserve Champion in both breed and workmanship at NAN and she took 2nd in the pony class at Breyerfest.
Congrats Shelley!

How to articles coming soon

I'd like to post some informative 'how to' articles on my blog. I'd like to know if you have anything you'd be interested in seeing, or learning about when it comes to sculpting or painting. Please let me know your thoughts in the comments section.

Thanks!!
