SOLO BIRD, (Owned by BJ Owens) bay QH stallion, Breyer Zippo Pine Bar repainted by me.
SOLO BIRD retired at the end of 2007 show season with over 11,000 points, earned in both performance and halter. He also earned points in Get of Sire with several of his winning sons and daughters.
"Smiley", as he is affectionately known, is a portrait model of a real stallion, now deceased. The real Smiley was owned by my college equestrian team coach, Anne M. Brzezicki of Murfreesboro, TN . His legacy lives on in his many foals and grandfoals in my model stables!
