Horse country

Tony often painted, drew or etched horses, usually in movement. When he hitchhiked as a 14 year old from Chicago to the San Francisco he worked for a while in a high end stable with widely known horses. The name escapes me, they recently released a movie about the horse. He rode, he has cowboyed, which he didn't care for too much. He preferred to ride mules, since he considered them smarter. Yet the lines of a pretty horse would always send his soul singing.
