What? Its Week 7 of AOTW? Yes it is! This week's Artist of the Week is Brie Cundiff of Brie Cundiff Studios.

Brie has always amazed me with her wonderful abilities to bring plastic and resin ponies to life. And she can do just about every colour you can think of while she's at it!  My ultimate favourites are her bays and her buckskins. I'm a simple girl right? I love the bright shaded dapples she also does that is unique to her own. You know when you see her work, and it always makes me smile when I see a new painted pony. She also has done her own resculpting that add to the dynamics of a piece. And as always, the little touches and details that really bring a creation to vivid imagination that it just may blink are all there. And I really love to see that. Horses are so intricate and actually quite difficult to paint, either in 2D or 3D scale, when you think about it. Brie, you're doing so well and please keep up the great work. :) I still think, of all the wonderful ponies she has done, the Fjord Barnaby shown above still has to be my favourite. Maybe because, Fjords, my favourite mini resin, and duns put together by a wonderful artist is why. 💕
To follow along her work, please check her Linktree for her Website, Facebook, Instagram, and sales outlets on MH$P and Ebay. Drop a like and share your support!

Hello hello. Hope everyone made it through their Monday! I've had a time of it lately with motivation in the studio. I always go by my mother's quote "An effort a day keeps failure away."  But its a time where I can't push myself. Just focus on little things in the studio like "Sculpt just a muzzle on the commission." Just get the magnets in on one drastic project, as its been waiting awhile. Just paint a layer on one or two of the mini resins in house. Why not start painting a medallion that will be in the Breyerfest sale? (Ooops...;)  Little by little motivation happens and as you think about things, suddenly its not so hard to just sit down and work with your hands. It can be tough when a hobby turns into something else, but you have to keep the joy within it, otherwise there is no point in continuing. So its important to take breaks. I get overwhelmed easily, especially since it is my very first Breyerfest with the studio participating, and all the p

  For awhile now I have been wanting to do something about featuring an artist every week. There are SO many wonderful artists in the model horse hobby, and all I want to do pretty much is share some of their work, with links to their social media ,and basically give a shout out to them! Sometimes we all just need a boost and a lil support from others where there are no obligations and just to simply share because we want to. This goes for both to the professional, accomplished studios who have worked hard to achieve their artistry, and to the new and starting out studios, learning and growing with every horse they paint. :) We all are at our own pace and journey with different goals. We can paint for fun or personal enjoyment, or as some who paint as a side hobby or even for a few of us, it is our full time work! But we all think the same : we love to create and we love to paint horses...both in 2D and 3D scale.  This week's Artist of the Week goes to.... Elżbieta Zarzecka of Meta

  *photo credit to Janilyn Kooy*  Friends! Last night was a special moment for me. It became official that a dream I have had since a little girl was to come true ~ to have a pony of my very own. Chance, aka LadyLuck Hero, is now part of the family. 💕 Its one thing to work with horses and ponies (and long ears) that belong to others when their owners are generous and kind to share. It was as close as I could get, and I learned a ton of what goes on in horse life that way. I've ridden many different horses and handled and pet many more, and I was happy with that. I still have two very specific horses I am very attached to in the way of sentimental value. 💜 God provides, and I knew my time would come one day. But it didn't stop me from always praying for a pony for my own.  Fast forward those years and times and many prayers. Last spring a friend and neighbour had a gorgeous Canadian mare, and she was not sure if the mare was pregnant or not. Well it turned out the mare was, an
