Painted Ponies Dance of the Sugar Plum Figurine
Painted Ponies Dance of the Sugar Plum Figurine
This chromatic 7.5 inch statuette prances and dances with sugar plums! With intense hue, this iridescent clad colt wears a tutu and pink ribbons as she stands on a stage of candy. She enchants with sparkling purple hair and patterned poinsettias.
Inspired by Tchaikovskys Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy from The Nutcracker ballet, the artist, being a horse lover, always envisioned horse fairies, instead of human ballerinas, dancing across the stage, whenever she heard this piece. In addition to sparking thoughts of a Sugar Plum Painted Pony, she was moved to write a poem that begins:
Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the stable;The ponies were restless; they were willing and able.To glide like sugar plum fairies through the cold winters night;To go prancing and dancing for the childrens delight. Free from their headstalls they whirled round and round; And exquisitely performed their airs above the ground.
