I have loved horses as far back as I can remember. If you have ever worked with horses, you know exactly what is going on in this painting. If you haven't, just remember, horses have a mind of their own! They are majestic and know it! This painting was won a Merit Award in the 47th National River Road Show. 144 artists from 17 states submitted over 400 entries. 75 were selected for the show and I was so excited when this piece was one selected for an award!!
