An amazing photo documentation of the tenderness of a wild mustang stallion with a tiny helpless little foal... and protecting it from another stallion in an amazing battle. Wild stallions are known to kill unattended foals, especially if they are not theirs. This amazing footage carried me through many emotions, from awe, to uncertainty, fears, anxiety, and happiness....and of course some eye moisture accompanied the ride. Wild horses are amazing!
My good friend, Pam Nickoles did the photography and put this together. She works tirelessly to help save our Nation's Heritage and to keep them as they are, wild and free.

My Work, part of American Horse Publications Awards
I, along with other western/equine artists, have been interviewed in a wonderful roping magazine called The SCORE put out by the National Team Roping Horse Association. The article was out Nov/Dec of 2008. I JUST found out that this particular article called "The Art of Roping" has been named as a finalist by the American Horse Publications 2008 Awards for Excellence! Who knew! Quck witted and excellent journalist, LA Pomeroy wrote this article, and here is what she says:"...that Score article on The Art of Roping has been named a finalist in the American Horse Publications 2008 Awards for excellence in journalism. I'll know full details after the awards are announced June 27, but I do plan to let you and the other ...

Thanks for helping make it literally one of the best equine articles of the year!"
Additionally, Ms. Pomeroy wrote to me..."I have even more great news I just havent had time to post, or contact all the artists about, but that Score article on The Art of Roping has been named a finalist in the American Horse Publications 2008 Awards for excellence in journalism.
