Years ago while visiting Santa Fe, New Mexico, I saw the work of Tony Stromberg for the first time. I have never forgotten it.
{fierce grace}
“The spirit of the horse”, quotes Tony, “is a magnificent teacher to humanity.” In both their physical, as well as their archetypal form, horses help to bring us back to something wild and unrestrained, reminding us of a sense of freedom that many of us have forgotten. They teach us about honesty and authenticity, because they know no other way of being. They teach us about collaboration over dominance. And they teach us to respect and honor the unknown, rather than fear it and try to destroy it.

His thoughts are as beautiful as his work! Thank you for sharing this!
Olivia and I were both born in the year of the horse. She loves to tell everyone that we are horses. They really are magnificent creatures!
