The Trail of Painted Ponies began in the summer of 2000. A major sculptor was commissioned to create a life-size horse that was cast in a durable resin blend. A call went out to the artistic community around the Southwest, inviting famous as well as emerging artists to submit designs that imaginatively celebrated the creative spirit. And the response was overwhelming, with results that ranged from the delightful to the breathtaking.

The first herd of Painted Pony figurines which were modeled after the life size Painted Ponies was released in January, 2003.  Painted Ponies have now become one of the top collectibles in the United States, and are now becoming available worldwide.  Each pony is unique and has its own individual story.

“Lightning Bolt Colt”

Pony Story: In Lakota Sioux mythology, the horse is a Thunder Being, who brings storms to Mother Earth. With storms come rain and change. With this in mind, Choctaw artist Dyanne Strongbow imagined a thunderstorm centered in the horse's hindquarters, breaking up as it moved toward his head into the sunny skies of a new day.
