Author's note

Carousel Horses by Denise Clendenin is a free equestrian dingbat font built from prancing carousel horses and ornamental fairground motifs. Its cut-paper silhouettes combine flowing manes, arched bodies, and curling flourishes. The forms have a lively theatrical sweep.

Designers working on circus and fairground themes will find it useful for posters and event graphics. It can also shape children's publishing and carousel-themed merchandise, with the horse figures acting as illustrations rather than ordinary text. The repeated equestrian imagery makes it especially apt for nostalgic amusement projects.
