A Navajo legend tells when the skies are blue and clear,
Johano-ai, the sun god, is riding his favorite, strongest and most valuable horse - the blue horse. From
this came the idea of a blue horse in every pasture, barn, show and anywhere horses hang out when the
skies are blue and clear.
"For me, the blue horse signifies what is great about horses. They are hope, wisdom, gentleness and
beauty all rolled into one. Blue horses have that feeling of a day with blue skies, clearness, and
a bright future for all animals. And, I hope they will give you the same feeling of a sunny day with blue
skies when you purchase one of my paintings, prints or tees." |
"Sunrise, the Journey Begins" |
"Try a blue horse - hang one on your wall, sit one on your
desk or wear one of my shirts. There is something mystical about them. Let one grace your presence,
as they have mine,
with a beauty that will give you many years of pleasure and a hope for blue skies in your future."
