The Trail of Painted Ponies is a public art project that invites the best artists of our time to let their imaginations run wild. The glorious variety of the artwork honors the spirit of human creativity, and the beauty and magic of the horse.
A cover artist whose Cowboy paintings massage, twist and tweak traditional concepts of Western art at the same time they embrace Western iconography, Jim lets his Painted Pony speak for himself: 'I don’t want to plough or amble along a trail. I’m not built for dressage and I’m certainly nobody’s pet. Give me center stage and I’ll give you a show because I’m Rodeo Dreams.'
