- I have always loved horses and and art. Being an equine artist allows me to combine two of my passions! As an equine artist I get to meet lots of wonderful horses and talk to their owners. I enjoy traveling to horse farms and equine events to take reference photos -- and photos for commissions.
I have four horses -- three quarter horses and an Andalusian. I enjoy trail riding and trying to teach the Andalusian dressage movements.
