For those of you who are horse lovers and appreciate learning more about them, I have included the following sites. I have had personal experience with each of these people or organizations and can vouch for them. These are individuals who have assisted in educating me, assisted me in training my horses, and showed unbridled compassion for horses in general. They have all in their own way influenced my equine art.

Recently I was honored to have my website linked to that of Dr. Robert M. Miller, D.V.M. Dr. Miller, as many of you may know, is the renowned authority on imprininting newborn foals. He has recently written a book entitled Passion For Horses and Artistic Talent: An Unrecognized Connection. In it he addresses the inspiration horses have had on the creative endeavors of a number of equine enthusiasts.
