I love horses, who doesn't? They are amazing creatures who for centuries have worked hand in hoof with humankind in so many ways from farm work and transport to war horses. They create an air of nostalgia as well as an abundance of love for every person who has ever had the privilege of loving one.
So it makes sense that my medium of choice would be the humble horse shoe.
To begin with I learnt to weld, surprising a few onlookers being that I am a middle aged, grey haired woman, and then once i had mastered the joining of shoes I have branched out into other mediums such as wood for the coat hooks, pottery for the bowls and most recently resin for the coasters. I love to try new techniques and ideas whilst staying true to my roots of using the humble horse shoe in my creations to bring a touch of quirkiness and maybe nostalgia to every day living.
