Ze Stripey Horse {and a giveaway!}

While randomly wandering around the sally store recently, I spotted a dash of black and white stripes... hidden behind old framed prints..

I moved them aside to discover this awesome wee matted, and quality produced print!  Still in original plastic packaging and not a single ding on it!

As you may or may not know by now... we have a very big Zebra lover in this house... so I left the shop with my treasure.

Later that evening I looked up the artist, Tony Cribb.   Within moments I was fan of his work - quirky, clever and amusing.   Maybe you've come across his work before?  Anyone familiar with Tin Man? Tony is a Christchurch local and a very friendly chap.  Hang on a minute you say...how do I know he's "nice"?

Well, that's because he is giving one of you guys a Framed 17x17cm Ze Stripey Horse Print (worth $50)!!

    Oh how cool - I love that you contacted him too! :o) I think the 'big rainbow' and 'little wings of hope' are my other favs. This zebra would go perfectly with a lion print I've recently bought. Fingers crossed!! xx

    What a fantastic find! Such a gorgeous print. I love Big Rainbow, although some of the Tin Man ones are pretty awesome too (Chick Magnet makes me giggle a whole lot). Thanks for the opportunity to win such a lovely print xx

    Wow that is so awesome! what a fantastic find....it must have been waiting there just for you :))
    I like the all you need is love...and a yellow submarine :) That was the song I used to sing in the early days, when my first baby just wouldn't stop crying! Not to the baby though, to me, to keep me sane! hehehe
