The Trail of Painted Ponies began as a public art project that invited the best artists in the country to creatively transform large horse sculptures into original artworks. The astonishing results have been hailed as the arrival of an exciting new American art movement called "Pony Expressionism." We hope you enjoy this high-quality reproduction that captures the power, beauty and magic of the original Painted PoniesFancy DancerThe Fancy Dance evolved from the early Plains tribe s war and victory dances. It is an energetic style of dance, usually performed by younger men who spin, twist, and make quick steps and fast turns. Their outfits are traditionally composed of lots of bright colors, metallic beads, sequins and ribbons which create a flashy display. They have two bustles, a head roach and intricately beaded headband all of which are faithfully and stunningly recreated on a spirited, snorting horse that is caught up in the excitement of the drum beat. This unique creation by a Virginia artist won The People s Choice Award in the national competition, The Native Art of Horse Painting.
