For Mary Ann--The Raul Rodriques Miniture Stallions

Degas, Renoir, Monet, Chagall, Picasso, Matisse worked as a standard liberty act. When they finished and got on the pedestals, the 7th little guy came in and ran circles around each horse and a figure 8 through the two horses in the middle. He was a dwarf and was named Toulouse. He had a genetic flaw known as string halt, which negated him running properly with the other 6. Monet had the most beautiful ice blue eye's. As you know my disdain for naming an animal with a goofy name, I compromised with my 7 year old son Taylor when he would call Monet "Walt". His childish reasoning being that Walt Disney was an artist also. LOL
