Summer and the Rainbow Meadows Rescue Ranch

Here comes Summer. Please welcome the new addition to the Brown Family. Summer is a painted mare who my wife Jacqui and I have adopted from the Rainbow Meadows Rescue Ranch, Sedan, Kansas. She is the most gentle, good natured horse I have ever met. Her story is a tragic one, she was left to starve alongside other horses, one of which passed away. The Rescue Ranch was alerted and stepped in and brought her back to health and offered her up for adoption.
I look forward to the opportunity to paint her and hope that I can represent her beauty, soft nature and good temperament. I have a link to an equine artist Laurie Pace on this blog and will attempt to show the spirit of the horse in my work as I believe Laurie does brilliantly in hers.
Rainbow Meadows Rescue Ranch has a Gala night on February 26th and part of the proceedings is a silent auction. I have given the artwork "Purple Rain" in support of the event.
