This original piece of artwork, "Frosty Morn" was given the recognition of "Chapters Choice Award" at the Canadian Federation Show for the Thompson Nicola Shuswap Chapter Art Show in November of 2005. This was a real accomplishment to me as it was the very first juried show that I had ever entered into.
While growing up on our ranch we were given an amazing team of workhorses from our friends who had just sold their ranch. A Belgian mare named Nancy, and a Percheron gelding named Knight. They were of course retired when they came to us and they gloriously lived out the rest of their years in bliss and leisure. But did we ever have fun with them, especially when my cousin and I dressed them up as hillbilly horses with flowers in their manes and tails for our local horse show costume class.
When I saw this western horse image of the 3 Belgians standing quietly within the snow it immediately recalled too many wonderful childhood memories to pass it by.
These gentle giants are one of the most amazing horses I have ever come across and have ever been with. I am very fortunate to be able to be in the process of doing another commissioned portrait of a Team of two beautiful Belgians, "Bill and Besse" in full harness. Keep watch for them as my project is going to be completed soon.

Matted Giclee art prints are available as well.
