 Horses of a Different Color, Having Fun with Model Horses The first "Cow Parade" in the U.S. was in Chicago in 1999. When I saw the painted cows I thought, "We should have painted horses." I had an old model horse (Made in China) Breyer Knock-Off. I painted it with the Texas flag on one side and Texas stuff on the other such as the Alamo, bluebonnets, cactus and the Space Shuttle. I called it the "Lone Star Pony". I put a picture of it on my website and took the original to a horse show. "Lone Star Pony" sold at the horse show and when I got home someone had ordered one from my website. All I had was the one! I had to make more. Soon I was painting model horses with the American flag, hot rod flames, world map, themes like fox hunting, Army camo, and more. Art themes: Picasso, van Gogh, Klimt. Historical themes: Ancient Greece, Ancient Egypt. The models can be customized beyond recognition of their original source. Example. Or they can be customized to look like your horse in a "Mini Portrait.  Custom Portraits on Breyer Models Scroll down the page and browse through the possibilities. |
