This filly is Sarah Minkiewicz-Breunig's "Pixie". I did most of the work on her during last year's Mayhem retreat, then brought her back to the studio here to do the detailing work on her. She is intended to be a foal-coated snowcap appaloosa. She's young enough not to have developed her facial mottling (though she does have pink, speckled skin under her upturned tail), so she has the dark skin around her eyes and mouth that give her soft, appealing expression. She also has softly suggested tonal variations along her cheeks and chest. She has no facial white, one hind sock, and the shell hooves one would expect to see on a homozygous appaloosa. (Heterozygous appaloosas - the spotted ones - have striped hooves. Homozygous ones do not.) She was originally intended for my own collection, which is why she is a pattern not often seen in custom glazes. $625 |
