Beautiful things in dog form....

[{97702}]

I think I posted several months ago about an absolutely stunning copper sculpture that Wildfire Forge had made of a running greyhound - I was introduced to WF by a friend on FB who I met through HHO, although I can’t remember her user name any more!

Well naturally I couldn’t resist it and I had to commission my own piece, and today I got the first preview of part of the piece It was meant to be a ‘work in progress’ shot for me so of course I’m sharing it everywhere as I’m absolutely delighted ?

Please find Wildfire Forge on Facebook, Rob is a real craftsman and the work he produces is beautiful!

This is the greyhound head... I love it, it reminds me of Ace my biggest boy....

Oh, that’s gorgeous

I must admit I feel almost tearful looking at it - I can’t wait to see the finished item (a tea light holder), I am so excited! ?

Will you pm me how much it’s cost you (if you don’t mind?). I can feel a little commission of my own coming on ?

That’s brilliant- Rob always laughs at me for constantly going on about greyhounds (which I do!) on his Facebook page, but I do genuinely think he is really talented so I like to raise awareness if I can ? I don’t mind saying on open to be honest.... I’ll see if I can post a link to his price list....

That is the price list - no, it isn’t cheap, but you get something which is beautiful and unique. I am happy to pay for that personally, I had to save up myself but I’m glad I did ?

I ordered the ‘Tea light holder not using my own horse shoes’ because it was unique and adapted to be a greyhound it was £125 including P + P - if you look at the price list it will give you an idea of the finished design

I hope there's a terrier commission coming next!

I hope there's a terrier commission coming next!

Probably ? it wouldn’t be quite as graceful and beautiful I feel... but it would have its own distinct charm ????

 

[Archangel]

That is stunning.

I love Wildfire Forge - gave my friend a voucher last Christmas.

I’m awaiting a terrier commission by a different artist for my husbands birthday -it’s arriving today. I’ll post pics later....

I was just thinking that George would not be happy to be overlooked. Come on Lev, you can't upset him!

 

[Parrotperson]

wow. that'll be lovely. I love his dragons too!

I was expecting a picture of George given the title of this thread... slightly disappointed tbh

 

[Blazingsaddles]

say hello to my little friend...

 

[{97702}]

Oh wow that’s fantastic BS!!! You must be so pleased, it’s lovely

There you are.... ??

Thank you, it exceeded my expectations but the terrier wasn’t impressed and growled at it, then scarpered -which I think is a compliment to the artist. ?

The artist would do a brilliant ceramic replica of George. https://lesleydmckenzie.com/
