Lot No: 18 - Ref No: 081 Arrr 'tis Capt'n Jolly By Natalie Bray & Team Jolly Roger Summer Holiday Home: Jolly Roger Lifesize Models, Bovey Tracey Natalie is the in-house artist at The Jolly Roger. Her time is usually spent custom painting a variety of different life-size models from cows to hares to a recent commission for forty-five 3ft models all in different key worker uniforms to celebrate their incredible work throughout lockdown. As the original 2017 Otter and the 2021 Otter and Pup were designed and created from start to finish specifically for the Moor Otter Project by the Jolly Roger, they thought that this year they should attempt their very own entry to the trail. After discussions about what the inspiration for the model should be it was obvious it would have to be a pirate! And they wanted it to be an incredibly famous and well-loved pirate, it had to be Jack Sparrow. But what to do with the pup? They finally settled on Davy Jones the other iconic character from Pirates of the Caribbean. Natalie really wanted to challenge herself and do something she had never attempted before, sculpting! She found the whole creative process was incredibly enjoyable if not challenging at times and the Jolly team are very proud of their entry and only hope it measures up to the other artists' wonderful work. This Otter is a 'Golden Otter' - one that has been specially selected by a panel of expert judges as being particularly stunning. Of the 81 Moor Otters there are only 25 Golden Otters. These Golden Otters will take their online bids to the live auction on Saturday, 2nd October 2021 at Bearnes, Hampton & Littlewood, Okehampton St, Exeter. You can continue to bid on these otters at the live auction in person or online.
