We're back!

After a year of refining my attraction-based training concepts and a year’s intermission from painting, I have made a big realization. My horses missed painting, and so did I.

Previously, when the horses and I collaborated on canvas, I always had a photographer or videographer present. Although it was great to permanently capture the moment, it didn't allow much room for spontaneous creation.

I'm now creating smaller works on watercolor paper without a videographer. This allows me to paint whenever and wherever I please. Before, I'd have to tailor the painting location for the best light for photography. Too often this was in direct sunlight. And in Florida, (where we live), it was quite a challenge to stay "in the zone" with sweat blurring my vision.

So now the work I offer is based on a new medium (for us) and a new freedom of expression. I'm really excited to share our current collaborations.

"Teaching your horse to paint is not so much about teaching your horse to wield a brush as much as it is understanding pressure-free, attraction-based training..." -Cheryl Ward

Hoofprints of Romeo, Juliet, DaVinci and RaleighHoof Prints & Signatures

How do you get a horse to sign its name? I started by painting the sole of Romeo's hoof with water-based paint and had him step on a piece of white paper. We took that image, shrunk it down in size, and made it into a rubber stamp. Ditto for Juliet, DaVinci and Raleigh.

Each painting is stamped on the back of the painting with the hoof print of the painter.
