All Horse Parade Photo Collage!
Posted September 8, 2008
Imagine a parade that is all about HORSES! Pat Getha, an equine artist from Delaware, Ohio, invited me and Sue Steiner, a fellow artist, to her home town's All-Horse Parade, bribing us with emails containing delightful photos she'd taken from last year's event. Sue and I decided to grab our cameras and drive on down. And, we had the best time!
As described, this 23rd annual All-Horse Parade had over 500 horses in over 100 units! It was a wonderful parade, and the sunny weather made for a day that was perfect for photographing horses. I have lots of shots to make into future paintings!
Maybe I can bribe you to attend next year with these shots I took yesterday!
This year's parade included . . .
A four across hitch . . .
Tails up in ribbons . . .
Minis pulling carts . . .
Canine companions . . .
Cute girls with pink cowboy hats. . .
A horse-drawn pep band . . .
Horseback riding fairies . . .
The hard working clean up crew . . .
More tails in ribbons . . .
Mules with personality . . .
Great hats . . .
Yes! Great hats . . .
A magnificent eight-horse hitch . . .
Unicorns . . .
My childhood hero - Zorro . . .
Black ClydSesdales . . .
And much, much more! Be sure to mark your calendars for September 2009's All Horse Parade!

The horse parade sounded like a great time! Sue told us a bit about it on the EAG member site. Will you be stopping by Congress this year. I have heard the Muralmosaic might be there. (Pat knows more about this)
Also .. Love your work!! You have a great sense of color!!
