Emergence Embellished

I completely repainted, from head to hoof, an Emergence Painted Pony. Thought I would try a black Pony which makes the Phoenix really pop!

Distelfink

My design, Distelfink, was chosen as a top ten finalist in the American Country catagory

in The Trail of Painted Ponies 10 Year Anniversary Design Contest!

The public is invited to vote for their favorite Pony in each catagory.

Here is the link to the American Country catagory (you can only vote once).

Living my whole life in or around Lancaster County, PA (aka Amish Country), this Pony design is near and dear to my heart. My design was inspired by PA Dutch folk art. The Distelfink, or thistle finch, represents happiness and good fortune, the hearts are for love and the tulips are for faith. 

I thought it would look great in black too. 

If you decided to vote for Distelfink, thank you so much!

New Pony - "Best Friends"

My newest Painted Pony figurine is part of The Trail of Painted Ponies "Happy Trails Collection". This is a new size Pony for The Trail, a little smaller than their others and offered at a more affordable price of $24.99. I am honored to have my design chosen as part of this first herd. Pre order from their website now for October delivery.

Original artwork for "Best Friends"

Very nice for a smaller figurine. They even got the silver hooves!

Signing Ponies

80 'Emergence' and 80 'Unicorn's Garden' figurines arrived last week for me to sign.

The only free day we had was Mother's Day on Sunday so from 10 in the morning to 7 in the evening, my husband and I unpacked, carefully removed, inspected and lined up by base numbers 160 Painted Ponies.

After they were sorted, I signed and numbered 75 of each Pony and carefully placed them back in their box along with a signed and number certificate of authenticity. I now have a mountain of shipping boxes in my living room awaiting the Fed Ex carrier so they can go to their new homes.

I'm really happy with how these designs turned out, very similar to the original artwork.

The special limited edition Ponies are still available through The Trail of Painted Ponies website!

The Painted Pony army! This isn't even all of them, they took up all the available tables and counters in my dining room and kitchen!
