Challenge Painting #360 Sand Wash Basin Gelding Internet Adoption
![]() | |||
| "Thunder" Sand Wash Basin HMA Gelding #7726 Currently at Honor Farm Wyoming. 4 by 6 inches Original Watercolor by Linda L Martin Artist $35.00 -----------------
I was looking at the photos of the horse they call Thunder. He is currently at Honor Farm in Wyoming. Boy is he a chunky charming stock horse type. And from the looks of it he is a nice easy keeper.
Ive noticed that lot of this stock horse type from Sand Wash Basin are indeed easy keepers. If you get a chance look at some of the photos of the Bachelor Stallion Cowboy. He really has the build. In this day and age a good easy keeper is a valuable asset in farm and ranch working horses. Thunder has been started under-saddle and needs to be fine tuned and have some experience. From the people Ive talked to who own some of these Sand Wash Basin horses, it takes a bit of time to get into their heart; but once you do, they give their soul for you. Please take a chance on this lovely boy. If you can not adopt, then share with your friends. Remember if he doesn't sell, grab his id number you can still get him once you have that info.

| A very elegant mare. |
As I was painting this mare to night what struck me was her eyes. And the way she is built she looks just like Barbie, Jimmy Darksand's mare. She is 4 years old and one of 7 young Sand Wash Basin HMA mares at Canyon City in their holding Facility. In the spring of 2013 I will be hopefully painting the other 6 young mares in hopes of getting their info and helping get them adopted as well. They come in a varity of colors and I really cant wait to see them. For now though we really need to get this mare into a good home or sanctuary. If you cant adopt her.. pass this around to your friends. Thank you so much for your help. This sweet mare's info is below:
