Here is Wild Blue, a carousel horse I painted for the Meridian Airport. I had wings added in Chicago before they shipped it, painted it like the sky, and painted the top (which the airport personnel kindly constructed for me) in a motif similar to Meridian's antique Dentzel Carousel, with paintings of various sky scenes and fake mirrors. This was such a fun project!

Wild Blue is beautiful. I am so impressed with your talent. I placed him on the right also so we may continue to enjoy him. I'll work on increasing his size tonight.
Martha Ann,
How beautiful - how whimsical - how simply enchanting! You must tell us how this gift to Meridian came about!
Let’s see. Pegasus abounds. Abounds in Greek mythology, in the sky’s constellation and now in the Meridian Airport. What a multi-talented person you are, Martha Ann. I am curious as to your selection of subjects.
Thank you all. Not much talent, but lots of hard work on my part. Jinny, Google Meridian's Carousel Horses, and you'll see the reason for this fun civic project. Each artist chose his/her theme, and to be different, I decided to have wings, thinking of mythology, then we asked the airport to sponsor it, since it seemed appropriate....
