The Trail of Painted Ponies was a powerful merge of businesses charities and artists for the benefit of the New Mexico community. In the first year of the projects conception, 120 life size horse sculptors were cast in a polyurethane resin. All artists began with the same sculpture as a blank canvas on which to create their art. Artists were allowed to alter the horses and many did. I sculpted and attached 7 eagle feathers to the mane and tail of Horse Feathers. Each artist was sponsored by a business and profit from the auction of the horses benefited New Mexico charities. The life size Give Me Wings is at 1st New Mexico Bank of Las Cruces in Las Cruces NM. Old Town Emporium sponsored Horse Feathers to benefit The Women's Community Association, an organization that offers safe haven for women and children who have experienced domestic violence. High Desert State Bank sponsored Give Me Wings to benefit Jardin de Los Ninos in Las Cruces, NM, Jardin educates and cares for young children of homeless and near homeless families while helping to them to recover..
