I am not sure if this is art - but I will claim that the original was 'wild'.
I have just finished this in time for our new grandson for Christmas.
It is based on a 17th century design. I first made one for his elder cousin over 15 years ago.
It seems to be a hit. 
Happy New Year

A real special gift you have made there it will be something to treasure in the family for years. I have made a few over the years, for my children and others of various designs. I made one for my fist grandson ready for his birth
his mum wanted to have one. He is 5 now and its the last one I have made.
Perhaps if my two sons settle down and have children I may be pressed into action again if I don't pop me clogs first .
Regards
