Joi made a splash at NAN 2005 when dozens of people asked to hold and look at her closely. She's only 1-3/4 inches tall (1/47th scale), but she wows everyone with her detail.		The real Fadjurs Joi, inspiration for Joi the resin sculpture. She's pictured with her 1997 colt, Fad Romeo by Fadjurs Boy. Photo by Patrick Berkery.
She features correct muscling and structure, expressive eyes and tearbones, mare anatomy under her tail, and even a full udder with tiny nipples! Joi may be close to foaling, but that won't stop her from expressing her Arabian spirit with her nose in the air and her tail over her back like a peacock. Joi was inspired by a real Arabian mare named Fadjurs Joi, a daughter of the legendary Fadjur and Saki. All the Fadjur-bred horses at Jack Tone Ranch in Stockton, California, have the same beautiful type, Arabian fire, and gentle spirit. They are not the enhanced, artificial type of halter Arabian -- they're natural, athletic, and representative of what many of the early foundation Arabians were like in the U.S. If you ask to see the Tones' horses at liberty, you'll see exactly what I was trying to capture in the Joi sculpture.

SCULPTURAL DETAILS: Standing 1-3/4 inches tall at the eartips, this new resin is cast in high-quality polyurethane resin by Mountain View Studios. She's very detailed with the following features: Accurate muscling & tendons Delicate bone structure on her face Peacock-like tail over her back Refined curvy Arabian ears Mare anatomy under her tail Full udder with tiny nipples

BREEDS: Joi can be shown as a purebred Arabian or any of the following: Welsh Pony Welara (Welsh Pony/Arabian cross) Shagya Arabian (which is shown as a Sport or Light Breed, not as a purebred Arabian) Morab (Morgan/Arabian cross) National Show Horse (typically Arabian/Saddlebred cross) Another Arabian cross

There will be up to 100 copies of this resin cast from two molds. An undetermined number will be painted in Artist's Choice colors and made available for sale to the public. Details about those sale models will be posted on Kristin's mailing list first.

VARA/COPYRIGHT STATEMENT: Joi can be painted, haired, or modified by anyone, but the original sculpting artist, Kristin Berkery, retains copyright on the original sculpture. That means it cannot be cast by anyone else, nor can a modified Joi be cast by anyone else. If modifications are done to the sculpture, they should be attributed to the customizing artist when the finished model is signed. Potential buyers should be notified that the modified sculpture was changed, how it was changed, and who changed it.
