"People's Choice Award" WINNER!

Over the weekend, Emerald Downs hosted it's annual Equine Art Show. The largest equine art show in the PNW. I was voted the winner of the "People's Choice Award" with my painting, "McGuffin for the win". Four days of voting and three days of racing, proved a successful weekend at the track. I am so honored to be the people's choice! What a great event, and I look forward to next year.
