9×12 ink on bristol. Original STOLEN off the wall of a gallery. As of 04-21-12, 321 views and 8 favorited.

CHALLENGES: Equine Art& photography – B&W or Sepia – Tied for 1st;
FEATURES: Every Little Thing You Do; Revealed; Wild Horses, Mustangs, Burro’s, Brumbies & Other Non-Domestic Equines; Pets Are Us; Impressionism Cafe; Equine Art and Photography; It’s All About the Horse;

Going back over my records, I discovered that this is an Andalusian stallion.
It’s so nice to have some one appreciate your work so much that they would steal it right off the wall!! It was in a show and when the show was being taken down I asked where this one was and where the receipt was. Guess what, neither was available. Oh.. I guess I’d arrived!!
And it was also the companion piece to “Bondage”.
But, my friends.. this is not the ONLY piece that was ever stolen.. I must really be good!!!!

    that is too bad, what is wrong with people now a days! Lovely work.

  • It’s not so much now-a-days.. this happened a number of years back.. but the OTHER pieces I had pilferred were over 30 years ago. Gee.. I wonder what they’d think of my work now???

    Hope they feel a little guilt every time they look at it, but I expect not…It is beautiful x

  • I doubt they feel anything but joy because they got away with it. The Gallery had to pay me, it still galls me to think that they have something they don’t deserve. But.. I was told that “you’ve arrived” because they thought enough of my work to steal it.. weird huh..
