Martini And Mojito
I got to know an individual through the Arizona Equine Rescue Organization Inc. some years ago, and she approached me to create a sculpture of their recently acquired Polo mare that shortly after their purchase unexpectedly gave birth to a healthy foal. She and her partner wanted to memorize this event. After taking lots of pictures and all the measurements of mom and son, I started the project in Switzerland to save time. When we were ready to return back to Arizona, I packed the clay model up and took it as checked-in baggage with us. Back in Arizona it looked a little squashed up, but the normal anatomy was restored within an hour. Obviously, the mare had to look “foolish” with a short mane. The owners allowed me to also sell a few copies of the sculpture, so I also created a longer mane for the mare. The sculpture shows the two running down a slope, side by side.
