The “Official Autographed Editions” of 250 figurines

In response to requests from our enthusiastic collectors, we are delighted to announce that The Trail of Painted Ponies has created the only "Official Autographed Editions" figurines. Serious collectors have been searching for a way to collect figurines that are hand-signed and hand-numbered by the artists that created the original works of art from The Trail of Painted Ponies... Now they can, and they are available exclusively through our website store!

There will be eight Painted Ponies in the Winter 2008 Autographed Editions and each will be special:

• These are the only "Official Autographed Editions" that the artists will hand-sign and hand-number.
• These Autographed Editions will be limited to 250 and will be sequentially numbered 1/250 - 250/250.
• An Official Certificate of Authenticity will accompany each autographed figurine.

An agricultural people, the Hopi have sustained themselves for millennia in the Northern Arizona desert without the benefit of rivers or streams. The Hopi Way is to work hard, pray, sing, take part in ceremonies, and create images they believe will summon help from spirit beings. This Hopi artist has incorporated a variety of traditional Hopi symbols into his design, all of which revolve around rain and moisture, and a successful harvest. Butterfly maidens are believed to help pollinate crops. Nothing could grow without the sun. Dragonflies are signs of a natural spring.

Buddy Tubinaghtewa is a nationally renowned kachina carver and painter who grew up on Hopi Mesa. His original "Grandfather’s Journey" was crafted into a figurine.
