A visit to an art gallery in Spain yielded the small plastic hand, a rare new purchase and not easy for me to make with regards to the environment, however it made this piece come together when I discovered the fit was perfect with the plastic horse.
I try to retain an element of humour in what I make. It helps me and the viewer too.The iron base was found in a field near Penzance and the horse from a charity shop. The model is of a shire horse used to pull ploughs for centuries.
