Painted Horse Gallery

These life-size horses are among more than 50, scattered around the Amarillo area.
They are the doing of the American Quarter Horse Association. (Well, maybe not
the "Horse in Drag". I have no idea where it came from.) Each painted horse has a unique theme.

I would like to thank you for the wonderful art work. Even though I am writing from Edmond, Ok. we can still appreciate this via e-mail. Our organization, Equine Therap
Center uses quarter horses for tools in our therapy sessions with troubled youth. It has been very effective. The originator of ETC is Prim Cockrell who is widly known throughout the quarter horse world. We will be using a fiberglass horse, given to us by
Express Clyesdales, OKC, in the 4th of July Parade. It will be painted similar to the quarter horse that resembles the American flag. We are thrilled with being able to provide a float with this horse mounted on it. Again, thank you for your great contribution to the American Quarter Horse, the greatest of them all. Lois Waechter

with addresses?

Correction about Mare Lynn. I was just in the mall and see that they moved her. I'm glad they did.
Dale Stanton07-Dec-2006 00:38
No, I don't have all of them. I'll run across the mirrored mare/foal one of these days. :) I can put up with the Mare-Lynn on Tyler ("Marylin Monroe Horse"), but the one at the mall (what I called the "Horse in Drag") is definitely NOT one of my favorite attractions.

Thanks! There's some new ones too that aren't there. One has a mare and foal covered in a mirror-mosaic. It's beautiful.

On the otherhand someone should probably euthanize the artist that created Mare-lynn. I think it's an insult to the original. I haven't seen it in quite a while, thankfully.

Ya'll can get a whole lot of painted horse pictures at Nag's Head at the OBX, there's got to be at least a few dozen. They're really cool!
