I thought I had written before about the amazing talent of fellow barn boarder Bev, who used Dude as the inspiration for one of her horse paintings. But I looked back and couldn't find that I had. Anyhow, recently, she's applied her considerable skills to the painting of stall signs in the barn. I'm not sure how it started, but she's done a number of signs by now, including the signs for Damien and Jubilee below. All the signs are really bright and cheery, and tie in to the horse's name or something about them (not sure about Damien's; haven't gotten that story yet!).
The stall signs are a nice tradition at Maple Valley. From the day the barn opened, barn owner Julie has painted a sign for each horse. For me, the signs are part of the barn's welcoming atmosphere, regardless of which artiste created them!
