ARTIST'S REFLECTION: American Performance Horse Commemorative Poster
In Celebration of Heritage
It comes with great honor and responsibility to create the inaugural commemorative poster for The American Performance Horseman.
More than a work of art, this poster is a tribute to the enduring legacy of the western performance horse industry. The paintings woven throughout its composition honor legendary horses and riders whose dedication and competitive spirit define the highest echelon of cutting, reining and reined cow horse.
Curated from the top qualifiers of the 2024 American Performance Horseman, each portrait reflects not only their competitive excellence but the soul and story behind their craft.
My hope is that these paintings offer more than a glimpse—they are intended as a bridge: connecting past to present, honoring dedication with intention, and carrying forward the spirit of both the American horseman and the American veteran.
At the heart of it all stands a shared and enduring symbol: THE HORSE.
Proceeds from this sale benefit the War Horses for Veterans program, founded on the same values that define our industry ~ courage, resilience, and service.
