Artist: Rich Mattson
Sponsor: A NASCAR fan
He came of age in the '50s, when hotrods and drag racing were "cool," when flames and checkered flags were stock images in car magazines. Years later, after three-decades teaching art and coaching basketball and winning an award as the New Mexico Art Educator of the year in 1988, Rich would draw on those times, those memories, when he was encouraged to paint a Pony by a NASCAR fan.
Made of ceramic. Measures 6" high. From The Trail of Painted Ponies.
