From the Trail of Painted Ponies Collection, Rolling Thunder. Designed by artist, Aloma Wolfington. Made of hand-painted resin. Measures 6" tall.

"Rolling Thunder" hearkens back to a time of big skies and fierce storms, of thundering herds of bison large enough to shake the earth beyond the horizon, and of Plains Indians and their spirited, sure-footed, courageous horses trained to carry bow-bearing braves through the stampeding confusion of a bison hunt. Only an artist who has called Oklahoma home her entire life, who has seen with her own eyes the way darkening skies can be splintered with lightning bolts that seem to outline a rumbling "sky herd" of buffalo, could have created this masterful homage to the "buffalo ponies." This small-town Oklahoma artist is a big-time talent with a subject matter range that is all-American.
