She is from a group of sculptures I created in 1988 while I was pregnant with our youngest son. I feel this group of works ,which included ‘Horse’ ‘Study of a young Man’, ‘Young Boy’ and ‘Young girl, was an important stage in my development as an artist. I did these works directly in plaster and cast them in bronze for an exhibition at Holdsworth Galleries in Woollhara, Sydney.
