  5. Oh what a fantastic idea! A ballerina on a horse! It just makes perfect sense to merge your two favorite subjects... Though I'm not sure that a horse in a tutu would work, lol! ;0)

    1. Oh, the horses are much too discerning to wear a tutu! At least for now!

  6. Oh it was bound to happen eventually! The meeting of the minds. Where will it go from here, I wonder... Is she late for her recital?

  8. OMG, Susan, you have such a wonderfully warped sense of humor!!! The theme is unbelievably brilliant, and, as always, so is your execution. I notice she is riding like a dancer [on her toes] not with her heels down. :)

    1. Oh yes, Kathryn - she has many ballet habits that need to be addressed! Instead of riding the horse, perhaps she is dancing it!

    2. But at least she is wearing a hard hat!

  9. They had all jockeyed for the lead in the forthcoming "Horse Lake", but Miranda had stolen the initiative, clearing all obstacles before her.... totally brilliant, Susan ...this is simply brilliant and funny and so original!!
