Loughnatousa Fabio

Another Copperfox has been released!

I'm not a fan of the mould or colour on this one, so definitely a pass from me. But it is nice to see a light bay model, you don't get many.

Winter Live 2016

Well as far as I'm concerned best show of the year so far :) It was a great day, small and friendly, really relaxed and some absolutely beautiful rosettes on offer.

Massive thank you to Cicci (show host) and Maria (judge) for making it such a great day...roll on next year!

The show was a CM & AR show with classes for Workmanship, AA, CM and AR.

Here is a link to all my pictures: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10153814103010155.1073741986.689360154&type=1&l=fa8d60fbe0

Introducing Bibbidi-Bobbido-Boo

She is a portrait of a real Gypsy Vanner stallion called Cobalt, described as White Blagdon, he is basically a max white sabino.

She is a teeny tiny night heather resin, can't remember how many of these I've done now! Still got five left to paint, just adore them so much :D









Boo will be donated to the raffle at OMG Orange OF Live.
