“Mustang Series”
In 2005 I moved to the desert South of Santa Fe, New Mexico. I bought my first horse four years ago. Now we have three horses, two mules and two donkeys on our ranch. Some of them are rescue animals. They have become such a big part of my life and bring me so much joy. No wonder they show up in my paintings. I paint what I love.
