As with many South American countries, horses are still a strong part of Bolivian culture. They are used for everything form transportation to agriculture, and perhaps most often used within the tourist industry. Here are some pics of horse life in Bolivia.

Horses have to watch what they eat, not to maintain a slender figure, but because there are so many plants out there that are toxic to them.
When I started writing my toxic plants section it quickly became comical as I started recognizing (& photographing) the many plants I was writing about in my daily life. I chose the pics below mainly because they are so common.
Horses are smart and will generally avoid plants that are toxic to them, however they can become a problem during drought circumstances, when natural forage is limited.

It seems that painting life sized horse statues is a growing trend around the world. I’ve done a little research and I don’t know if they are all connected to the Trail of Painted Ponies or if they are independent. (Anyone know?).

Last year I did quite a few posts about eco & animal friendly products for horses and the people who love them. There are only so many resources to go around so shopping clean and green is important.
Let’s face it, horses are animals and all of their needs can and should be met as naturally as possible. Especially considering we’ve plucked them from their natural environment and asked them to live on our terms.
As we learn more about horses, more about our environment and more about what we can do to give the world a better future, our priorities have to change.
Under no circumstances do I condone this practice, however it does exist and ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. Talking about it and getting involved will.
These images have been circulating the web for some time now & have generated quite a bit of controversy. Perhaps first popularized by an article in the Daily Mail.

This is perhaps one of the strangest horse-related videos I’ve seen on youtube in a while so I thought I’d pass it along.
If you are into My Little Ponies, then you may get a huge kick out of this show. I did a little research and don’t believe it’s playing anywhere. Although there are copies of the DVD floating around online for purchase.
If you are a believer that the ponies are a bit creepy as they are will be fully justified in feeling that way after watching the clip below.

Ivan was a Russian painter, born in St. Petersburg in 1876. He was raised fairly isolated from the traditional Russian art community and found himself inspired by Russian folk art & fairy tales.
His love of the wilderness of Old Russia and the mythology that arose from it propelled Ivan into a career of illustration and mural painting.
An art nouveau flair combined with his attention to detail led Ivan to later become an accomplished & sought after stage designer for opera and ballet.

Tell us a little about you, what is your background & where do you come from?
I am a recent graduate with a B.A. in fine art. I have an emphasis in painting (using mostly oils), but am beginning to incorporate more photography into my work. I grew up on coloring books and always knew I wanted to become a professional artist. Although I was born in Wyoming, I have spent most of my years living in Minnesota.

While I’m all for giving treats to your loving equine, but it’s important to make sure you are feeding them clean. The best way to do that is to make treats yourself (psst, it may even save you money).
