We've posted a photo of this horse before. It is one of the 55 plus "Horse Fever" horses in and around Ocala; and is located in the downtown square. "Horse Fever" horses celebrate Ocala's status as "Horse capitol of the world."
Wouldn't you love to spend an evening with the artists who created these horse fever horses listening to them talk about the experience of painting them?
Thanks for your comment d.d. on my photoblog. BUT... my dog, Frederik, did not like beeing calling a she :( I bought him 2 years ago - 3 years old - in a sort of society for the prevention of cruelty to animals. The previous owner had removed "the bells", but it does mean sex change *LOL* Besides, I gave a comment on your ref. of your own dog :-D
It's well-painted and fun to look at. You placed got the angle beautifully with that background. I love how the color of the building and trees work with the painted horse.
I love the butterfly and the bright colors.
ReplyDeletewonderful work!

ReplyDeleteMy congratulations to Ocala horses! Looks like this one was looked after by very optimistic hands.

ReplyDeleteI must remember to send you some of the ones we had exhibited here at the Museum of Natural History when they did a horse themed exhibit
ReplyDeleteWhen I went with Sarah to take Lorelei to the library, right inside the kid's section was a horse similar to this. She loved it.
ReplyDeleteLove these colorful horses, even better than the real ones - this one can't throw me off.
