"I have had a passion for horses since I was a child, having had ponies of my own growing up. Now one of my daughters is obsessed with the equestrian world. So I have returned to that lovely horse smell I have always wanted to capture in a bottle and that calm rustling sound in a stable, as the horse munches away, oblivious to the elements outside!

This equestrian bronze study of 3 horses was the result of me wanting to go on a journey of learning the various stages of a gallop. What I realised is there are subtle changes that happen with the shape and outline of their body. This is on top of the more obvious changes of the leg movement. I wanted to bring these stages together, to see how they relate. I used the studies of Eadweard Muybridge alot and still do.
We have this bronze equestrian sculpture behind the sofa in our sitting room, on a half moon table, and it looks very striking as you walk into the room. I have also seen it look equally compelling, in the centre of a dining table which would definitely create quite a talking point! I modelled these three horse sculptures in wax, and I had them cast as a bronze equestrian sculpture as a limited edition. The horses can also be purchased individually".
