This is cool, RainyC! Very creative. How did you decide to take a My Little Pony doll, melt it down, and turn it into a Wall Street Bull? Do you sell these thing?
I am a big fan of vinyl toys, and some MLP customs came up on some of the art blogs I subscribe to via my RSS feed. I happened to have a My Little Pony laying around, and happened to be a bit obsessed with New York City after having visited. I also liked the idea and symbolism involved with taking what could easily be considered the symbol of American capitalism and merging it with a cheap child's toy. I do sell such things, though I currently only take commissions for custom pieces, since once I make something for myself (like this bull), I give it away in most cases, before I ever have a chance to sell it. This particular sculpture lives with my father. Also, I am a bit backed up with orders at the moment, and though I am taking requests, I do not have a fast turn around time, until I get caught up with the orders I have for paintings and plushies, that is. Thanks for the feedback!
