The reference for all of my Salt River horses was taken by Susie Bell. A talented photographer that supports the Salt River Wild Horse Management Group. The Salt River Wild Horse Management Group has worked hard to protect the horses from bing removed from their land. These art pieces are a tribute to these beautiful animals and I am very proud of them. For more information please, visit The Salt River Wild Horse Management Group’s website.
