Monastic Springs

It's been more than two years since I've received new photos of this guy, and I can't tell you how thrilled I am to see how he's grown! Would you believe he's only a two year-old? The last time I saw him, he was just three weeks old. For those who don't know me well enough to have heard my endless gushing about Ipi Tombe (pictured in my second blog entry here), Monastic Springs is Ipi's first foal, a colt by the greatest living stallion in the world, Sadler's Wells. He is currently in training in New Jersey, and will hopefully make his first start either late this year or at the beginning of next year. If he has even half the talent of his illustrious parents, he will be a stellar runner.
In model horse related news, I am working on a little sculpture project, and with any luck, I ought to have pictures sometime this weekend. A sneak peek at least, I hope!

Post-Breyerfest productivity


Now that Breyerfest has come and gone, it's back to the grindstone for me. This week, I've been working on a few projects, not the least of which is a massive update of my website. I have alot of model horse pictures to load in still, but I've finally gotten alot of my Thoroughbred pictures organized and online. At left is a shot of Ipi Tombe, my favorite race mare, that I took last week at Denali Stud. The rest can be found here.

I currently have two horses for sale on ebay ending this weekend. One is a CM cold-painted Lakeshore Arab in palomino and the other is a CM Breyer Classic Arab Mare in bay.

This weekend, I plan to finish up and photograph a couple of commissioned pieces, and I hope to be able to mail a few of them out this coming week. I also have a couple of drastic customs in the works, so please check back for some sneak peeks!
