My personal ideal of equine
aesthetic perfection is an ongoing pursuit and at any given time I have
several horse sculptures in progress in the studio. I'm influenced by
Greek and Renaissance sculpture from antiquity as well as
Bayre and Fremiet from the 19th century and Anna Hyatt Huntington and
Adolph Weinman from the 20th century.
My goal while creating "Tempest" was to present a feeling of dignity
and drama with a symbolic pose of wind- tossed mane
depicting power, beauty, and proportion. As a lover of horses, one
who grew up with and has always owned horses, I enter the realm of instinct
while contemplating the design of what I consider the most beautiful
animal on earth.
