The Trail of Painted Ponies has stampeded into American Art History as one of the most successful public art projects of all time! Born and bred in Santa Fe, this wildly popular public art project invited artists to let their imaginations run wild and transform life-size horse sculptures into stunning original works of art. These dazzling Painted Ponies were exhibited throughout the state of New Mexico and they enchanted hundreds of thousands of people and reinvigorated tourism, while raising awareness and funds for worthy non-profit organizations.
Today, The Trail of Painted Ponies is proudly celebrating over 20 years of horses in art and it has become one of the premier art and collectible companies in the world, crafting one of the most cherished collectibles in America, The Trail of Painted Ponies figurines. These miniature works of art are prized by collectors who appreciate artistry and fine craftsmanship.
The Folk Art of Bobbe and Jeff Punzel-Schuknecht~a.k.a. Williraye Studio.
Williraye Studio was the combined talents of Jeff and Bobbe Punzel-Schuknecht. The name Williraye is derived from combining Jeff's middle name "William" with Bobbe's "Raye."
Jeff hand carved each piece from clear basswood, while Bobbe painstakingly applies the final paint and finish. Each piece in the Williraye Collection has been carefully cast in the highest quality resin, and painstakingly hand painted to retain the look and feel of the originals. Bobbe passed away due to cancer in 2013.
Shelia's wooden houses & accessories are made exclusively in the United States by a family owned and operated business since 1979. Each award winning one-of-a-kind design is meticulously researched by people who are proud to play a part in the exciting process of keeping history alive.
