Campfire Cowboy After a long days work this cowboy's only
companions are the stars and his campfire. He's caught here warming
his hands. The flame is caused by a tea candle and sheds wonderful
dancing shadows all around our tired cowboy. Built from used
horseshoes and painted black. It stands about 6" tall and
6" square. This is an original design from Doyle Carver.

Horseshoe Fisherman This cowboy is
having a little trouble with his open face reel when he's casting.
Maybe his line is too old and twisted. Or, maybe his reel is a little
dirty, or its too windy, or the sun was in his eyes. WHATEVER it
is he has a mess on his hands. Every fisherman alive knows what
this feels like too. This sculpture weighs about 3 lbs and stands
about 12" tall. It is the perfect way to remind that buddy to
practice up a bit before the next fishing trip. Maybe even suggest
that he switch over to a Zebco 202.

Horseshoe Roper
This is the
traditional horseshoe roper sculpture built from authentic used horseshoes.
This design is passed down among folk artist for probably hundreds of years.
How long have horseshoes been around? Yep, about that long.
It stands about 12" tall and weighs about 3 lbs. The
"rope" is copper coated welding wire and gives the sculpture a dressy look.

Horseshoe Stevie Ray This
sculpture is an original design from Doyle Carver. It features a
12" tall Stevie lost in the music of the moment oblivious of the world. He is seen
wearing his tradional flat brimmed hat with a red feather out the back.
The guitar is whimsical and modern built of 1/8" wire. It is
painted glossy black and looks great in a music room, bar, club, mantle or
bookshelf. It makes a great reminder of one of our master
bluesmen. Note that I also make a
Horseshoe George. Looks just like the
other one except with a cowboy hat.
$27.95
Stove Up Cowboy What we have here is a
tribute to any and all cowboys who over reach their capabilities. (Or maybe
just had a little bit of bad luck!) Its a trophy of sorts
to ambition and optimism that falls a tiny bit short on execution and is
sure to make anybody feel better. I designed and built the
original sculpture for Mike a Texan who discovered that cowboy boots don't
fit on skis too well. Sure to make anybody feel a little
better.
