Special Guest Artists for Thanksgiving  Week!
This week we have two special guest for the Mustang A Day Challenge.  Our first  guest Artist is Rachel McCaffrey.  Rachel lives in South Africa.  She is well smitten with the Wild Horses of Sand Wash Basin HMA. Her painting of  Apache will be featured on Monday. 

Our Tuesday guest is a world renowned artist  Jeanne Newton Schoborg , living in Iowa, who  is well known for her beautiful traditionally realistic paintings of show and domestic horses. For our purposes she is going back to the basics with her wonderful oil painting of  the spirit of a wild stallion. 

Please let both of these artists know how much you enjoy  their work ! On Wednesday Im offering my 2008 painting Snow Ponies for the challenge to get you in the mood for Christmas. It’s the Most Wonderful time of the YEAR!!
