Hoofbeats in Heaven
Where breezes blow and cloud wisps flow
Stretch infinite pastures green and long
There is a place where horses go
Where they are young again and strong
From dedication, trials, and service paid
Their benevolent hearts abide
The ones who were loved and the ones mislaid
May their spirits forever reside

THE STORY BEHIND THE ART
This painting is a unique creation of 13 horse angels commissioned by their owners who are members of the support group and memorial website www.hoofbeats-in-heaven.com. It was miraculous creation that took on a life of its own. I was inspired to paint the horse angel in the upper left corner so that anyone who sees it whose horse has crossed over, can see their own horse's spirit joining the herd.
