I think these scultures are really clever, and well done. This guy is amazing to use horse shoes for this too. Great was to turn something, in to something else to be enjoyed for other generations to enjoy.
I would love one of these in my garden.
The beautiful thing to me, is that is is done so simply, yet still stunily beautiful

This guy is amazingly talented. Love them all, but especially the deer/stag. Thanks for sharing that, elaine!

I think I liked the ones of the horses best, but they were all very well done. What a great talent he has.

Whisker liked the stag, Joebert liked the horses, I'm partial to the first one - the crane. He is great, I agree!

I would love to have that deer/stag in the backward coming out of the woods.

That would look great!
With the materials & time invested they must be expensive, agree?

I imagine he would get the horseshoes from junkyards - so it's like recycling.

They are all fabulous but my favourite was the Squirrel with the Tortoise coming a close second. A friend of ours sculpts using scrap metal. It must be great to be able to make something beautiful from rubbish.

Maybe he gets them from a number of riding schools, but what a lovely use for them though. I can't choose what one is best though, as they are all lovely.
