Running Free - Reproduction Prints and Canvas

"Running Free" is a painting of the Onaqui Herd in Utah. The wild horses in the Onaqui Herd Management Area (HMA) are considered the most visited and cherished mustang population in the United States. Unfortunately, these beautiful animals are at risk (read more below).

This piece is meant to celebrate the essence of the herd, and to remind us that freedom is precious...for both human and wild animal. Portion of proceeds will go to the American Wild Horse Preservation Campaign.

More about the Onaqui Herd and Herd Management:

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced its intention to round up and remove 80% of them from our public lands.

The federal government uses costly and cruel practices to eliminate wild horses and burros from our public lands to clear the way for taxpayer-subsidized livestock grazing. Each year, the BLM uses low-flying helicopters to brutally stampede, capture, and remove wild horses and burros by the thousands from Western public lands.

Those that survive roundups are stockpiled in government holding facilities. If they aren't adopted or auctioned off, they are sentenced to a lifetime of being warehoused in long-term holding facilities. At worst, wild horses end up in the slaughter pipeline.

Approximately 80 million taxpayer dollars fund this mismanaged program, annually.
