A graduate of the Illustration Department of Kendal School of Design in Michigan, she began her career in retail fashion illustration.

Rolling Thunder hearkens back to a time of big skies and fierce storms, of thundering herds of bison large enough to shake the earth beyond the horizon, and of Plains Indians and their spirited, sure-footed, courageous horses trained to carry bow-bearing braves through the stampeding confusion of a bison hunt. Anyone who has spent time in the Midwest has seen, firsthand, the way darkening skies can be splintered with lightning bolts that seem to outline a rumbling sky herd of buffalo. This is a masterful homage to those buffalo ponies.This small-town Oklahoma artist is a big-time talent with a subject matter range that is all-American.Title: Rolling ThunderArtist: Aloma WolfingtonMedium: Hand-painted Art GlassMeasures: Suncatcher: 9 x 6½; Name Plate: 6½ x 2½

Woodland Hunter came to me through research and study of the northern plains tribes, says Kevin Kilhoffer, a native of western Oklahoma who studies, draws and paints the American West. I found records of a Franciscan missionary stationed at a fur trade fort dating back to 1836, and in his notes he described a Teton Sioux warrior who rode into the fort wearing a magnificent war shirt adorned with scalps and wonderful art work decorating his horse. Incorporating markings that tell of deeds, wisdom, wealth and bravery, and outfitting his Pony with a shield, weapons, saddle and bags for transporting food, Kevin has created an astounding and historically accurate tribute to that Plains Indian warrior.Title: Woodland HunterArtist: Kevin KilhofferMedium: Hand-painted Art GlassMeasures: Suncatcher: 9 x 6½; Name Plate: 6½ x 2½

During the first half of the twentieth century, parades and horse shows held in conjunction with rodeos, fiestas and fairs throughout the West fueled a demand for fancy, embroidered saddlery. Elegant, silver-mounted parade saddles, carved with floral and figural motifs, and with matching bridles, martingales and breast collars, were perceived as exquisite works of art. Silverado, a customized interpretation of this flashy tradition by Karlynn Keyes, vice president of The Trail of Painted Ponies, is a masterpiece by any definition.

About Vickie Knepper-AdrianA special bond existed between a warrior and his horse. They communicated on the most intimate and subtle levels. A whispered word, the squeeze of a leg or a shift in body position could often determine the outcome of a hunt or fight. As the Apsaalooke Chief Plenty Coups is quoted as saying, My horse fights with me and fasts with me, because if he is to carry me in battle he must know my heart and I must know his or we shall never become brothers. A warrior also often painted his favorite war pony with the same pattern and colors he used for his own face and body, letting everyone know that they were as one, in heart and soul; that they were Warrior Brothers.Title: Warrior BrothersArtist: Vickie Knepper-Adrian Medium: ResinMeasures: 8
