Lone Star Live isn't all about performance. Competition in the halter rings is just as tough. This second group of photos from Kellye Bussey celebrates some of the amazing artistry that was on display in the Custom and Resin halter and workmanship classes. As best as I can, I've tried to credit the artists responsible for these lovely horses. Additional information is always appreciated, however, so if you recognize something please share the details. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteAh, lots I'd happily steal :D
ReplyDeleteThat first picture is amazing!
ReplyDeleteLove the spots on the first one and the stripes on the foal!
ReplyDeleteIf we're talking thievery, I'd happily relieve Vicky of either of her two. Liz's Eberl could also find a spot on my shelf along with Kellye's brindle and... Oh, who am I kidding? I like them all!
