Cavallus
Artist Penelope O’Gara
Vintage velvet & lace, glass beads, wire, buttons & jewellery
50cm H x 13cm W
Cavallus is the bravest of the brave. Indeed, following his famous display of valour at the Battle of Lilac Cove he was awarded the highest honour that the Merfolk's court can bestow. You haven't heard of the Battle of Lilac Cove? Well, briefly...the Merfolk of the Upper Waters were surrounded by horrors from the very deepest trenches, the hideous glutinous blobs that haunt your nightmares; they threatened to engulf and destroy the entire Court. Until, that is, reinforcements led by our hero arrived from the far reaches of the Inland Sea. Executing a feint & retreat that lured the horrors away from the civilians, they led the near-blind blobs into the waiting maws of some very hungry sharks. Now we all know how reliable a hungry shark is, and thus it was for leading his troops between the very teeth of these sometime-allies that the Order of the Luminaria was bestowed upon our mer-hero.
