Nancy and Manoleto

It has been a while since I found time to update this blog.

Just before leaving for Germany I finished the portrait of Nancy Falley and her aging horse Manoleto. She is the founder and keeper of the American Indian Hore Registry.

It was supposed to be a surprise for her 70th birthday from her Tejas Spanish Horse Club. Vicky Ives of Karma Farms had contacted me for it. So here it is.

Back here I prepard for the annual art festival in Custer State Park,  held always the weekend before the buffalo roundup - lots of people walking through, nobody bought anywhere - times are tough and it shows.
