When this ornament is sold, there will be no more since the manufacturer has retired these beautiful ponies. This Plains Indian Ceremonial Horse is decorated with objects which are believed to bring the horse’s owner power and protection. The hand-painted shield, spear, bow and feathers provide "good medicine" to everyone who believes. Recognized by Southwest Art magazine as one of the top 30 artists featured in their 30 years of publication, Santa Fe sculptor Star Liana York is as well known for her detailed and sensitive renderings of Native Peoples as her gift for capturing the spirit of the horse in three-dimension. With Medicine Horse, she has combined her love and knowledge of people with special relationships to animals by creating a Plains Indian ceremonial horse dressed with a collection of personal objects believed to give the horse's owner power: shields, a lance, a bow, a pipe and assorted amulets and talismans. Created as a collaboration with Cathy Smith, a master of the classic arts of Plains and beaded quill work, and an Emmy award winning costume designer whose credits include Dances with Wolves, Son of the Morning Star and Buffalo Girls. Together Star and Cathy have produced some of the most striking collaborations. The collectible figurine "Medicine Pony" was a collaboration between the two, as well as the phenomenal "Ceremonial Pony," a life-size bronze Pony that was the original model for The Trail of Painted Ponies. Stunningly adorned with authentic buckskin and beaded accessories, it is currently on exhibit at The Gallery Four Seasons Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona, where it represents the zenith of what Star refers to as "Spiritual Liaisons."
