A Great Start for the Southern Arizona Horse Expo!

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

The debut of the first Southern Arizona Horse Expo this past weekend was a success!  They had a great crowd turn out to enjoy some very informative presentations and get a chance to meet some solid local rescue organizations.  

Thanks to everyone who came by my booth to chat… it was wonderful talking to old friends and meeting so many new friends from various facets of the local horse community…  I’m really looking forward to seeing everybody at next years event – check back for info about it at clayharperhorsemanship!

For fun, this is a piece I worked on at the Expo, it’s mostly done, just has some finishing to do with the background.  This is an oil on 16 x 20.

I hope everyone had a Happy Holiday season and a great New Year!
I’m all set up with my booth at the 1st annual Southern Arizona Horse Expo this weekend – Saturday and Sunday (January 16-17) from 9 am till 5 pm.  It’s looking like it will be a fun event, and hopefully the start of many more in the future!  I have a number of my recent pieces as well as small reproductions of many favorites.  If you live in Tucson, come on out and say hello and gather with southern Arizona’s equine community!  It’s located at the University of Arizona’s Agricultural Center on the northwest corner of  Campbell and Roger (enter off of Roger Rd), admission is $15.  Here’s the poster with more information:  Southern Arizona Horse Expo

I was also thrilled to have a painting accepted into this years Empire 100 Sh0w!
