This was a temporary work of art in the annual sidewalk chalk festival a while back. I won 15th place for it, and it lasted nearly two weeks before the foot traffic erased it out of existence...

A sidewalk chalk festival...what a cool idea! We should have one here in Seattle, except that it would probably get rained away before one could finish! Anywho, I like this a lot, it's very beautiful and mystical. Only 15th place? I bet it was out of like, 2,000 or something, though, right? 12

Actually Laura, it wouldn't get washed away in Seattle any more than it did here. I live about two hours north of you. ;-) And it was out of thirty... although my entry this year was washed away by the next day due to being out front of a bank who apparently didn't share the northwest artsy spirit of the whole thing. I'll scan in that one when I have a chance and post it here.

Cool! If I had something like that on a sidewalk near my house, I would shoot everybody who tried to step on it! 12

Ooooh! This is so neat! What a great design! And it has Ogham!!! If my books weren't packed away right now I'd try to decipher it. Does it say anything??? How very creative to mix a "real" horse emerging from a symbol/drawing. I love it! Time for me to improve on my knotwork pix!

BEAUTIFUL! Grrr. 15th? I bet the judges were all on drugs! Or... something. *looks at clock* Bedtime. Heh. Anyhow, again, I really like this... It's such a shame it was only temporary! Maybe you should try re-doing it in coloured pencils on paper?

If only it didn't get destroyed by people. Its so lovely. The horse is remarkable, and i love how its posed. Great work. Truly a work of art!

Love the color! Love the design! WOW! I say you go back with paint! If you come to visit me you could paint it inside my breezeway!
