Save Our Wild Horses - Conference and Art Show, Washington, D.C., USA

The future of our wild horses and burros in Canada and the U.S.A. is in peril.

To bring awareness to the plight of these animals, a Save Our Wild Horses Conference will be held in Washington, D.C. from April 26 to 30, 2022.

There will also be an art show on April 29th. One of my paintings will be on display and available for purchase. It is titled “Alberta Wildie”, 24”x36”, acrylic on wrapped canvas. Reference photo courtesy of Sandy Sharkey Photography. This is a painting of one of the wild horses living free in the foothills of southern Alberta, Canada.

In addition, a pre-show online auction for the art is being held from April 26 to 30, 2022. This is your chance to buy high quality art and photography before the art show.

Alberta, Canada, also supports wild horses. Wild Horses of Alberta Society’s mission is to ensure the provision of all aspects of the conservation and humane treatment of wild horses living in the foothills of Alberta.  They are committed to the preservation of these magnificent animals in their natural environment.

Please support the wild horses and burros.

“Alberta Wildie” Goes to Washington, D.C.!

I painted this picture of a wild horse that lives in the foothills and eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains in Alberta, Canada.

It is acrylic on stretched canvas, 24”x36”.

To learn all about the wild horses (or “wildies”) of Alberta, an excellent source of information is the Wild Horses of Alberta Society (WHOAS). Their mission is to ensure the provision of all aspects of the conservation and humane treatment of wild horses in Alberta.

A similar organization in the U.S.A. is Save Our Wild Horses. They are holding their first annual conference in Washington, D.C. April 26 to 30, 2022, with an art show on April 29th and “Alberta Wildie” will be there. The show is open to the public and all members of Congress and staffers are invited.

The art show will feature photographs, paintings and drawings of wild horses and wildlife that live on public lands. This is an excellent opportunity to help the wild horses and wildlife and also raise funds for this worthwhile organization.

So “Alberta Wildie” will soon be securely wrapped for shipping and on his way to Washington, D.C. from Costa Rica! I think he is a good ambassador for the beleaguered wild horses.
