'God forbid that I should go to any heaven in which there are no horses'
Robert B Cunningham Graham
Hello my name is Jeanette and I am the artist/carver behind Delfryn Rocking Horses.
My passion has always been horses; from the minute I could walk I have had a love for these beautiful animals. Growing up I found true solace in the presence of these, my four legged friends.
I have lived all my life around woodwork and building, growing up the daughter of a carpenter and building or renovating my own homes. When over 7 years ago I began collecting and building small scale model horses I found it just didn’t satisfy the creative fire burning inside me so I decided to switch to a larger scale version.
With my love for horses and with the sap of wood, so to speak, running through my veins it was inevitable these two were on a collision course and the two would develop into this; the most rewarding venture (other than my children) I have ever embarked upon.
Making and Designing Rocking Horses has now become my passion, my obsession, my therapy even and I am constantly thinking of new ideas. I am hoping in time this will become more obvious as the content on these pages grow and change.
My wonderful husband Brett helps me with some of the less creative aspects of Delfryn like using the bandsaw, which I have arguements with a lot of the time that usually end in me snapping blades and cursing. I have three great children Ben, Sam and Emily too but at the moment we only have my son living at home, its getting quiet around the house these days.
I work very hard to bring each piece of wood to life to create a unique individual work of art that will be loved and cherished by its new owner.
I can’t begin to explain to you the amount of satisfaction I get when I see the look in the eyes of children when they see and fall in love with my horses. I love to hear about how my horses are loved and what names they are given.
If you would like any more information about me or my horses please feel free to contact me I am always more than happy to hear your feedback and any ideas you may have.
I must get back to work now....
