Description
SOLDHippocampus, a half horse, half fish, creature from Greek mythology, created by Poseidon to pull his chariot.
This is a one of a kind sculpture, 100% handmade from scratch from polymer clay, and epoxy over a wire and foil armature. It is painted with acrylic paint, colored chalk, mica powder, and glitter. The eyes are Austrian crystal, the mane is dyed Tibetan lamb's wool, the fins are made of cellophane and wire. It has been coated in clear resin for a durable glossy finish. It is 6in long and 3 1/2in tall.
The eyes are very reflective and seem to glow in the right light.
The colors in this photo are a little off, the blue areas are darker and less aqua colored in person.

I agree with *scenceable on this. Really awesome sculpture! I thought you used a barbie horse as base, which means how anatomically correct you are!
