I am not ready to go public with my paintings yet but this one comes closest to how I feel. This is my oldest daughter Sarah with my first horse Sunny who has since passed. This was the primary image for Building Internal Resilience through Horses. This is the magic. #art #equineassistedtherapy #pinkisthecolouroflove
