Artwork description:

A lively and striking Unicorn cantering through our world. An heraldic creature that has all of the wonderful qualities of a horse with an extra mythological element.

I began making this sculpture by modelling with wax onto a wire armature, or framework. Then I moulded and cast it using an innovative technique that I have pioneered, so that the finished sculpture is made of a beautiful British eco-resin that is distinctive and affordable. This striking contemporary material enables me to create the vivacious semi-translucent colour, and allows for interesting glimpses through to the armature, or internal structure of the sculpture.

The sculpture is for sale as a limited edition of 24, and is mounted on a semi-translucent, almost black, flat acrylic base. It is 14cm long, 15cm tall, and 6.5cm wide including the base. It is initialled on the inside of the left hind hoof, and comes with a signed letter of authentication stating its edition number.

Although this sculpture looks delicate it is actually much more robust than it appears, and can withstand small knocks and movements in the home. Being made in a light-weight material, it weighs less than half a kilo and is easy to transport and move about. I package it in a sturdy cardboard box and it travels very well by courier.

See my further listings for the other unicorn in this series, and please feel free to send me a message with any questions. There is a “Contact Me” button next to the “Follow Me” button under my profile images. You can see pictures of me casting sculpture in the “Me at Work” section of my Profile.

Thank you so much for your interest in my work.
