Pine Tree Studios of New England

  This carousel style rocking horse was one of my first commissions over $100.  The patron bought it as a gift for a woman he would later marry.  The image is a scan from a polaroid, the finest technology the mid-1990s had to offer. <1998 Basswood (horse), maple (rockers), leather tack, and rhinestones. Polychromed with polyurethane finish. Private collection, US.

A commission that was carved during the summer of 1998.  Some of the process photos were taking at the grand opening of a woodworking business in 1998. 1998 Basswood Polychromed with polyacrylic finish Private collection US
