Painter & Customizer

I customize models I enjoy. I have been collecting since a very young age. I started out with she-ra and He-man horses. The crystal ones at about the age of 4 or 5. Then moved in with my mom at about 9 or so. I then got into the Live Horses. Been hooked every since. I had a palomino walking Hartland had all his legs broke at the knees but he still ran as good as any with all their legs. I would sneak play with my moms Breyer horses. Favorite was the Chestnut Splatter Appy QH. besides other horse figurines to play with was funrise, then Grand Champions. Then got my first Traditionals Justin Morgan and Chestnut Pinto SHS. My BFF and I started painting horses to colors we wanted. That's when it all started for customizing. Just for our fun.

I then just collected as I seen them had over a Hundred or so. Then found out that they were actually Customized and sold. Then wonderful new doors opened for getting into selling them too in 2000. I have done trial and error with techniques. Paint colors and went from being scared to death to work on a broken horse to totally chopping them up.

This is a little Bit of who I am. No matter how many times I have tried to walk away from my Models and painting. But I have always came back to painting customizing. I totally enjoy seeing all the wonderful comments and all my Happy Customers of my customs. Thank You to all who have helped me make this a wonderful journey for me.
