After a long search, I finally could transfer my paintings on fabric and I have to admit: they look great. The fabric cannot faint or blur. It is washable too. How nice to see a cushion perk up and embellish small items as real work of art. Use all your bits and pieces, mohair, wool, cotton or whatever left-overs you do not like to...

An old paper torn into pieces and stuck together with wall paper glue is the base for the little horse. Next step is covering it with some layers of elastic clay which dries open air. Paint and shade is added. Last step is making its leather saddle, tail and mane. Now his bit and bridle and there he goes the perky Gee-gee. Big step...

Weather has been extremely warm for the time of the year in the Netherlands. The sunny sandy beaches, which are close by, inspired me to make this little friend.
