Thanks Andrea and Emily! I had a great time painting your horses. They have such personality and colors that it was like getting to know a new friend. Please pick up a copy of the Spring issue of “Horses in Art” magazine for an article on Painting Horses in Plein air.

I have been blessed to “know” Karen online now for awhile. She was kind enough to not only paint one but TWO (I’m a KM collector!) paintings for me. The first one is pictured above of my 3 geldings running in our pasture here in south Alabama. She had emailed me a picture of it before sending and I thought it was awesome but in person it’s even more stunning. The second is of my beloved Arab gelding Jay. He’s the chestnut at the top of the page.This one I did not see until I unwrapped it and let me just say I have never been so moved! I bawled! I have them both framed and hanging in my house and they receive enormous compliments continually!
I love her work and look forward to seeing new stuff from her!

I will always be grateful that we crossed paths. Not only are you an amazing artist, you are genuine, giving, and caring in so many ways. Every day I look at the painting you did for me of Mojo, and I smile. It’s so, completely him, just watching me go about my day. Thank you for that wonderful gift. I hope many people can receive the same gift from you!
