This chromatic ornament prances and dances with sugar plums! With intense hue, this iridescent clad colt wears a tutu and pink ribbons as she stands on a stage of candy. She enchants with sparkling purple hair and patterned poinsettias.
Inspired by Tchaikovskys Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy from The Nutcracker ballet, the artist, being a horse lover, always envisioned horse fairies, instead of human ballerinas, dancing across the stage, whenever she heard this piece. In addition to sparking thoughts of a Sugar Plum Painted Pony, she was moved to write a poem that begins:
Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the stable;The ponies were restless; they were willing and able. To glide like sugar plum fairies through the cold winters night;To go prancing and dancing for the childrens delight. Free from their headstalls they whirled round and round; And exquisitely performed their airs above the ground.
