American Academy of Equine Art The American Academy of Equine
Art is a non-profit, tax exempt organization founded in 1980 at the suggestion of Alexander Mackay-Smith and Dr. Joseph
Rogers, board members of the Westmoreland Davis Foundation at Morven Park in Leesburg, Virginia. The idea was to
assemble the finest equine artists in the country to exhibit together, share creative ideas, and, eventually, to
establish a teaching organization - modeled after the Royal Academy in England. Contact : Lynn

Breyer Animal Creations "Today, Breyer Animal Creations continues to produce in the USA and distribute some 100 different horses and models to horse enthusiasts and collectors around the world. The company, which was acquired in 1984 by Reeves International Inc., has built its business on one simple, unfailing principle: to produce the highest quality products possible. Each Breyer horse is a world of art and craftmanship. The creation process begins on a sculptor's table, where commissioned artists carve famous horses out of clay. The sculptors painstakingly define each detail, from the animal's muscle tone and bone structure, to its proportionate size and overall shape. In many cases the artists travel to faraway farms and ranches to view the living legends." Breyers Horses Patricia Crane - "Internationally acclaimed for her expressive, life like sculpture, Patricia Crane has achieved fame in the United States for her remarkable life sized bronzes installed in front of The International Museum of the Horse, at the Kentucky Horse Park, Lexington, Kentucky and in front of the American Saddle Horse Museum.
