Through The Veil
There’s something otherworldly about it — a quiet sense of love that transcends distance, as if two souls are meeting again across the light. 🤍 It reminds me how love and presence can linger — just beyond what we can see, yet always felt. ✨ I hope this original painting brings a sense of peace and wonder to your day 💛
Serenity - selected to be published in ATH magazine #10
Every cowgirl needs a little serenity. Have you ever experienced the profound tranquility that comes from being in the presence of a horse? It's a feeling that compels you to lean into them as all else fades away. This brings to mind a quote often attributed to Winston Churchill: "There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man." I feel this every time I’m with my horses, and in fact, many years ago, while grappling with grief, it was a horse that inspired me to start living again. This moment of connection is something I strive to capture in my equine artwork, especially in paintings like this acrylic piece measuring 22x28, beautifully framed.
Dressage Competition
“Dressage Competition” portrays the elegance and quiet focus shared between horse and rider during a moment of performance. Set within a peaceful landscape beyond the arena, the rolling hills and soft light create a sense of calm, drawing attention to the connection and trust within the partnership.
Acrylic, 14 x 24 inches, framed.

Whoa
Aww… that powerful sliding stop of a reined cow horse—a moment full of energy, trust, and connection after so much hard work and dedication. In my equine artwork, I carefully layer each detail to honor the heart of that perfect stop between a horse and cowgirl team. This piece, a stunning example of horse paintings, captures the essence of their bond beautifully. 🐴💛 2 1/2ft by 3 1/2ft on gallery wrapped canvas.
Building TRUST
Inspired by a quiet moment between my daughter and one of our foals, Building Trust reflects the gentle connection that can exist between humans and animals. In these simple, peaceful interactions, I’m reminded that very little is needed to experience a true sense of belonging. Trust is built not through words, but through patience, presence, and quiet understanding.

Under Her Watch
For many years, we were fortunate to raise exceptional foals. During that time, I had the privilege of quietly witnessing the deep bonds between mares and their foals—something both powerful and tender.
There is a profound kind of love in a broodmare’s care. The way she nurtures, protects, and remains fully present with her foal is instinctive and deeply moving. It is a connection that goes beyond words—built on trust, warmth, and quiet understanding.
This painting was inspired by those moments. The stillness, closeness, and gentle exchange between a mare and her foal reflect a relationship that is both beautiful and essential.
HORSE N AROUND
This painting grew from a moment my husband captured 📸—two of our yearling colts playing in the pasture, full of energy, curiosity, and that carefree spirit only young horses have. They were sparring and dancing with each other, completely lost in their own little world. There was something so genuine in that exchange, and translating it onto canvas felt like honoring that moment. When it was finished, he simply called it “Horse N Around,” and somehow that felt exactly right.

Arrival
This painting was inspired by a quiet, sacred moment—the birth of a new colt from my cow horse, Stormy. There is something almost indescribable about witnessing new life take its first breath, its first unsteady steps, its first awareness of the world.
In those early moments, everything feels suspended in time—fragile, powerful, full of promise. This painting became my way of holding onto that feeling… honoring not just the colt’s beginning, but the strength and devotion of Stormy as she welcomed him into the world.
TEX HARMONY
This artwork is rich in texture. A little history - many years ago, I traveled to Fort Worth with friends and our horses to compete at the NRCHA non-pro boxing world show. During our stay, we visited the stockyards, where the longhorns were amazing! Such powerful looking creatures, yet these beautiful animals possessed a gentle demeanor and a sweet softness to them. Ever since that time, I’ve been intrigued by these magnificent animals. This original painting measures 2ft by 3ft on gallery wrapped canvas.

SHELTERED HORIZON
I’ve watched horses seek out places like this—quiet shade, soft grass, a moment to just be. There’s a rhythm to it, simple and true.
Sun on his back, earth beneath his feet, he rests in that balance I’ve come to love so much.
In these quiet moments, I’m reminded how little they need—and how much they give.
KINDRED SPIRITS
This piece of equine artwork was painted from memory, inspired by a neighbor’s pup who used to visit daily and often paused to share a quiet moment with a particular horse. Their simple, unspoken connection stayed with me.
For me, Kindred Spirits is a reminder
that meaningful connections can appear in the most unexpected places.

SACRED COMPANIONS - CAPTURING Movement, Intention & PRESENCE
LIVE IN FULL COLOR
Born from an intuitive process and created primarily with a palette knife, Live in Full Color is an exploration of freedom, movement, and imagination. A vivid horse charges forward, his flowing mane becoming part of the energy surrounding him. Behind him, an enormous moon watches over the scene, its expressive face adding a touch of mystery and surrealism.
I began this painting without a fixed image or story, allowing color, movement, and emotion to guide me. As the horse emerged, he became a symbol of freedom, instinct, and the courage to move forward without knowing exactly where the path will lead.
The moon seems to remind us that there is always something mysterious beyond what we can see—a quiet presence accompanying us as we journey through life.
Live in Full Color is an invitation to embrace your individuality, trust your intuition, and experience life boldly, freely, and unapologetically.
WHISPERS OF LIGHT
This stunning 30in by 40in gallery wrapped canvas features an expressive equine presence in motion. This artwork beautifully captures the essence of my signature horse paintings, making it a perfect addition to any collection of original paintings.
Ethereal
Ethereal is “Step N Out” into a sunlit meadow to meet us. Present and fully engaged, this sacred companion moves toward us—ready to walk, trot, or run alongside us, wherever we are on our journey. 💫 To me, horses have always been more than earthly creatures—they are wise, intuitive, healing spirits. Through Ethereal, I hope you feel the presence of a true companion—not just standing beside you, but moving with you… toward light, healing, and connection 💞 This equine artwork captures the essence of those moments, making it a perfect addition to any collection. Measuring 2 1/2ft by 3 1/2ft on gallery wrapped canvas.
On The Move
One of my favorite methods of creating equine artwork is with a palette knife. It can be freeing to take a blank canvas and start designing a vision, especially when it comes to horse paintings. This method produces texture, movement, and the best imperfections!

Silvio
To me, horsewomen share a deep bond-with each other and their horses. This painting honors Silvio, a heart horse lost in 2024. I created it for his owner, and dear friend, hoping to capture his expressive spirit. Though gone, his heart still lives on in her and in this piece.

After days of rain, the first sunny day brought a chance to move the horses out of their muddy pens. For those who know horses, you’ll understand the excited energy that comes after standing still—arched necks, lively expressions, and pure joy in motion.
Later, in my studio, this moment inspired me. I could immediately see this horse against the abstract background. 18x24 acrylic

The Visiting Girls
Series “Life Is Full Of Inspiration”
The visiting girls. This painting was inspired by my neighbors chickens. I really enjoy their frequent visits 🐓❤️ Our horses are entertained by them shuffling around looking for bugs. Those chickens must feel so important 😂 I come out of the house just to watch them and the horses stretch their necks over the fence to get a better look. Love my neighbors and their beautiful girls ❤️🐓❤️🐓
I See You - One print available
16x20 acrylic
This was my first horse on canvas, and it’s evolved from its beginnings. I wanted something powerful—
something that wouldn’t just be looked at, but that would look back.
I sought connection and wild spirit, so I focused on the eye and the flowing mane.
“I See You” isn’t about being seen by others—it’s about Being seen, movement, and connection.
Looking back, this first horse marks the beginning of a journey ❤️🐴
CAPTIVATING – Three print available.
This horse turned around pausing to watch delicate butterflies flutter by. I chose to include the butterflies because I love their symbolism—transformation, freedom, and the quiet moments that invite wonder.
Emerge
2022 16X20 acrylic painting - Series “Life Is full of Inspiration” - Two Prints available
The Story Behind the Painting - in 2021 I visited a special person who has an outstanding butterfly garden and she raises them to release. As it happened during my visit a couple of them were ready to hatch. As we watched one emerge from its chrysalis, I videotaped. At one point my friend was a bit concerned mentioning I hope her wings are okay. She explained to me that if their wings are deformed or crumpled and don't unfold perfectly they are unable to fly. So when this butterfly continued to struggle to unfold by moving back and forth we were both hopeful.
Eventually with time her wings were dry and stretched out, she began flapping them, so her wings appeared to be working properly.
My friend opened the panel to release her and we both watched with anticipation! To our excitement this beautiful butterfly flew around the backyard enjoying all the amazing flowers that my friend had nurtured for her.
Moral of this story...If you feel broken-give it some time, try again and again. Eventually you will fly.
