Something for Everyone!
Regardless of your medium or technique there is a book for you. Some may appeal more to sculptors, others may be a delight for flatwork or model horse artists. Professional, amateur, young, old... all are welcome to explore their creativity through the these unique books.
Detailed Cross-Index
All horses are identified by breed, age, and gender (as long as known) and are also cross-indexed. If a horse appears in more than one of my reference books, it is easily identified by its individual ID which can be found in the Cross Index column on the Contents page.
Conformation Unaltered
Conformation and anatomy are guaranteed to be unretouched and unaltered in every image.
Developing Series
Many new titles in the pipeline, covering a broad spectrum of the equine world. I would love to hear what you would like to see next!

​Primarily of interest for sculptors and anatomy students, this book will also prove useful for model horse painters who wish to study hair direction in detail. An excellent complement to Unusual Angles & Dynamic Action.

Heads, necks, & close-up details
This book contains multiple images from different angles as well as close-up details of ears, eyes, and muzzles. You can get up close and personal with mouth wrinkles, or compare and contrast a draft horse with an Arabian. A wide range of ages, including foals.
This book is heavy on Arabian horse imagery, but it also includes photos of other breeds such as the Exmoor Pony, the North Swedish Draft Horse, and the Rocky Mountain Horse.
