Glory of Horses
I am one of a large group of equine artists working with Equestnetwork to create a huge mosaic mural which will focus around the issue of "Equine Retirement" through the work "Glory Of Horses". There is a great need to support and establish retirement facilities for horses and we have embarked upon this project to provide a way to help fund a large network of equine retirement and equine rescue farms. This project will be a long lived project, in that it does not just ask each contributing artist for a "donation" of artwork that is simply auctioned off and never heard of again. This project is going to be a massive mural that will consist of approximately 300 +/- 12"x12" panels and be somewhere in the neighborhood of anywhere between 16'x24' to 20'x20'.
This huge entire "mural" will be displayed at race tracks, and other large horse related venues to bring focus to the need to support the retirement of the horses who do so much for us all! We figure that this mural will be actively circulating in North America for at least two years or more and there is interest already from a couple groups in Europe. The artists who contribute panels will be able to attend the exhibitions at the various locations as part of the tour of this great work. Equestnetwork is talking with a few large corporations and others to become sponsors for the entire project as well as sponsors for individual panels. Each panel will be numbered and listed in a "Legend" that will honor the particular artist, the sponsor, and provide other pertinent information about the piece. When the mural is finally retired from its exhibition tour at various events, Equestnetwork is looking for just the right place to have it reside where it will be displayed and continue to speak to thousands of people for decades to come.
It is hoped that this Mural Mosaic will generate much funding for many retirement farms which will help eliminate some of their burdens so that they can truly focus on "the horses" that they care for.
