The Equine Dream Art Show is brought to you by Equine insurance,
a division of Parker General Insurance, is one of the leading agencies in the western United States specializing in equine and farm related insurance coverages.
Those who appreciate the beauty and majesty of the horse also admire the artwork inspired by this noble creature. The 2008 Western States Horse Expo Equine Dream Art Show and Sale presents the opportunity to view an extensive array of fine art inspired by the horse and the lifestyle they provide us.
This year more than 100 pieces of juried art are on display by equine artists from around the world. These artists and this special show each go to tremendous lengths to bring you some of the best, “never before seen” equine art that can be viewed in the Mane Market Mall between Buildings A and B. Be sure to cast your vote for the People’s Choice Award!
The Equine Dream Art Show will showcase works in all mediums, including oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, pencil, photography, jewelry, stained glass, pottery and sculpture. The art show portrays a vast array of horse subjects in various disciplines, including western scenes, mares and foals, cowboys, draft horses, Arabians, Quarter Horses, and many other breeds. The art sale is a fabulous opportunity to acquire a work of fine art to adorn the walls of your home. Surround yourself with the image you love---the horse!
