My wife always wanted a horse, so as a wedding gift, I made this one for her. It’s much less maintenance than a live horse, and the city of Seattle permits us to keep him on premises. He’s an outdoor pet, year round. Comprised of a myriad of ceramic and glass pieces, all held together by a brown grout, Beau-k has a heavy duty fiber-glass substrate. He is a full size foal.
Seattle does freeze, and is VERY wet, and he holds up great. For any outdoor sculpture, however, the elements must be considered, and the materials adjusted accordingly.
