When was
your first encounter with a horse?
My
first encounter with a horse was an evil little pony my mother bought me. When I
was a little girl I always wanted a horse. I learned to love that evil little
pony and now I stable Arabian horses at Fern
Valley Farm.

When did
you begin sculpting and creating?
I
started creating and sculpting my ponies almost 1o years ago. I got the idea
when I was playing with my son and his Play-Doh. He asked me to make a
pony. So, I purchased some good
sculpting clay and that was when my ponies were born!
Tell us
about your custom sculptors...
I
create a lot of custom ponies. They start from $25 for a basic, and go up
depending on the details. All I need are pictures, information and what you
would like. My father, the proprietor of JM
Originals also makes little barns for my ponies that can be hung on the
wall or as an accent piece in your home.
Do you
have a favorite pony of your own creation?
Yes,
I do have a favorite pony (see below)! I just love the colors I put into her and the way
her mane flows. I feel she is the best I have created so far, but then again, I
love all the ponies I create; a little part of me goes into each one!!
How long
does it take your to create a pony?
It
takes at least 2 hours to make a pony, but depending on the details, it can
take half a day or even longer.
Do you travel
the horse/equine circuit?
I
will be at the Midwest Horse Fair
in Madison, Wisconsin again next year (April 15-17, 2016).
What does
horsemanship mean to you?
Horsemanship
means bonding with your horse, learning to trust your horse and they learn to
trust you. Nothing can be built without trust.
