***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
This week we’re offering a custom painting created by a talented trio of equine artists: Blitz, Minnow, and Boomer, the resident painters at Painting Pony. These Chincoteague ponies produce colorful, one-of-a-kind canvases with guidance from their trainer, Kyley DiLuigi.
The ponies hold brushes in their mouths and apply paint to canvas, creating lively abstract pieces with distinctive character. Buyers can personalize their commission by selecting a background color and up to four paint colors, and choose which pony will create the piece. Each commission also comes with a CD containing photos and video of the painting session so you can see the process and the pony artist in action.
There’s a video on the Painting Pony website showing the painting process and other tricks the ponies perform. The team also includes a charming Dachshund named Ammo who often joins the fun.
