Creating this piece was a dream come true. She was a labour of love. I used to work in wood, with my trusty jigsaw, which hadn’t seen the light since I started cutting glass 15 years ago. Her shape was cut with my saw and then her body became my canvas.

Both sides of her tell a different story.  My co-creator added steel ribs, mane, tail and legs and she became a sturdy little filly.
