The Show

Freedom, energy and grace, hung in one room.

Unbridled Hope asked artists for the horse as they actually see it. What came back runs from glass mosaic to colored pencil to watercolor and pastel to oil on a 40 inch canvas. Thirty-four of them now hang together.

Dimitra Milan and Elli Milan judged alongside gallery director Jock Armour. They read 756 entries from 510 artists and chose these thirty-four. Every one of them earned the wall.

For two weeks they hang in one room at 80 S Palm Ave, and every piece is for sale.
