Go Yago!


A quick in-progress photo of the #1 Artist's Proof Yago in sooty buckskin. This is one of my favorite horse colors; a myriad of dappling and shading, yummy toasty browns, and then those bright golden undertones...

When he's done he will be treated to a little trip to the beach for a more serious photo shoot.

By the way, if you are attending Breyerfest this week and you haven't seen Yago in person yet, be sure to visit the Mountain View Studios booth in the covered arena. They will have an unpainted Yago casting on display.

Artist's Proof #2 Faran, named Anduril, attended the North American Nationals model horse show in June 2013 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and came home with the Reserve National Championship in his breed class of 33 horses!

He also got a Top Ten in his workmanship class. Congratulations to his owner, Beth Rappleyea.
