The First In a New Body of Work!






Unveiling for the first time! The Western Machine A sneak peek into the next collection in the medium of gouache painted on paper then cut and pasted on illustration board. So, why this piece? Even though we have come this far in horse training alot of the rough ways of doing things still exist, despite John Lyons, Pat Parelli, Monty Roberts and the like who present old, wise ways in an easy to understand package.There are gentle ways of horsemanship, yet many people are doing the same things. Like this scene. The rider is about to fall off, he's spurring the sides with a whip in his hand, the horse is out of balance and just ran through a fence... why?
