My Personal Collection

Please note that most of these models are not for sale.

My collection consists of three types of models: OF Breyers and Peter Stone Models--mostly old Lady Phases and appaloosas/ POAs; Vintage Tradtitional size customs including warmbloods and some action poses like jumping and rearing; and more currently a collection of minis that I have painted.

In this gallery you'll see my mini collection.

I enjoy showing models that I created, so that when I win a ribbon I can say to myself "I did that!" If you have painted a model yourself and shown it, you know the feeling. If you haven't yet painted a model horse, I'd recommend it!

This paint stud, Dun Paintin', was a complete CM from the Breyer Old Mold Cytation. He was one in airbrush and acrylics in approximately 2001.

All About Bob took me years to finish--that's why he is here and not on my sales list. I fashioned him after the Breyer Classic Shire. He is shod and has bob made of stick pins (the kind you use for sewing). He is a CM from the Stablemate Drafter paintid in airbrush and acrylics in 2006.

Ricky Ricardo was a pleasant surprise. I painted him just to sell, then ended up showing him in 2004. He NANed in Performance and I decided to keep him. Thank you Becky Yeager for LSQ SM tack that helped him win!
Warmblood Model Horse

 

I love this horse so much! What other mold (HR Drafter) comes with a bridle so you don't have to tack up a mini. How great is that? I made two of these Haflinger mares, but sold #2 to a friend. Her name is Sunshine. I did her in airbrush and acrylics a long long time ago.

This little WB filly is a resin. I forgot who sculpted her. I made a few tiny edits to get her how I wanted then painted her in acrylics back in the late 1990's (I think).

Pony Model

This is the first cast of my Frequent Flyer resin. He is cast by hand from epoxy with wires in his legs. After this model, I resculpted the mane and had the other models cast.

The Eh Capa Bareback Riders are a Boise, Idaho tradition. This group of young equestrians put on a wonderful show of horsemanship without saddles or bridles."They control their mounts with leg cues, their voices, and a one-inch wide leather strap around the horseÕs neck known as a Òtack rein... The Eh Capa Bareback Riders were created in 1956 as an inexpensive way for children to ride and enjoy their horses."
