Year of the Porcelain Horse

Framed Blue and White Faux Porcelain Horse

Original Art by Nicole Grosjean

2026 is the Year of the Horse, a year of action towards positive change. Earlier this year I made a sculpture inspired by ancient ceramics from China, molded it in plaster, and cast in paper pulp. With the mold made, I’ve been exploring different faux ceramic finishes on the various castings and wanted to emulate delicate blue and white porcelain figures. This horse is cast in white paper pulp, coated in transparent watercolor ground, painted with blue liquid watercolor, accented in gold, and sealed with gloss acrylic. It is mounted on a pale blue fabric mat, surrounded by a laser cut wood design and a cream/gold mat. The piece is framed in a metallic faux bamboo molding, with anti-glare museum glass. Celebrate the Year of the Horse by bringing this special piece home!

About the Artist

Nicole Grosjean

Nicole Grosjean graduated with a BFA in illustration from the Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design in Denver, Colorado in 2008. She combines her passions for fantasy and craftsmanship into unique, multi-layered works of art. To her, there is nothing more valuable than an object an artist has created with their own hands. She endeavors to build pieces that are not only illustrations, but wonderfully complex environments in their own right. Nicole is constantly trying new techniques and pushing the boundaries of materials and mediums to bring her visions to life. Her sculptural illustrations are patterned from detailed drawings, hand-cut, and then layered to create various depths depending on the size of the piece. The layers are then painted in watercolor and gouache, and are often back lit with LED lights.
