Horses and tentacles- I’m not really sure how they go together.

He has a dark peach or tan skin color.

I probably need to take another photo of his skeleton tattoos’ head. The skull isn’t showing.

He has silver rickrack and a button with a horseman going the other way. Both of the belt components have a personal history. Anytime I use some metallic rickrack, it comes from costume making for my kids when they were little. So probably at least 30 years old. The button is reclaimed from a poncho my Mom made me when I was 12. It makes me happy to give them new life.

I figured a pool photo was the perfect place for a Merman.
