Armored Carousel Horse

Two images of an Armored Carousel Horse which are typically the lead horse on Carousels. It's the horse the carousel operator counts as he passes during the ride.

This fellow is "carved" in leather, then painted with acrylics.
Leather carving and painting in acrylics are not new to me.....putting the two together was new. I usually stain tooled leather. I was pleased with the result.

No one is more surprised than myself.

I entered two items in the Trail's End Art Association's annual judges show. I am stunned and honored to announce I won two second place ribbons.
