She is my own interpretation of the fish rider concept. The Hoffman challenge fabric is in the fish tail and fins. Oceanna is 18" tall and this year, due to my disqualification last year due to being 2" over the height limit, I carefully measured every element from the design stage to finish! WELCOME TO MY BLOG.
