  PAINTED PONY PROJECT
 
We are pleased to be a part of the Trail of the Painted Ponies fundraising project.

“American Dream Horse” which was painted by the renowned Texas painter Bonnie is painted in the warm red and deep gold colors associated with Russian matruska dolls, and children’s faces peer out with hopeful expressions.
