Morgan Shadoah, charcoal, goes to Italy
“Hi Bj. Any new sketches? One of your sketches (the one with Shadoah sort of coming out of the tree) went to Italy! A very good friend of Steve’s Aunt came to visit. She told us, her riding instructor brought the first 4 Morgan horses over to Europe. Andyway, she rides Morgans and fell in love with Shadoah. I gave her the sketch andd it is now in Italy.
The sketch of Clarion under the oak tree is being given to a very good friend of mine and Laura Algranti (who owns Clarion) and lives in TX.
I am never giving up the one of MS and Mister. Just thought you would be interested to know. ;) I can’t wait to see what else you come up with.”
