Artist: Kathy Morawski Sponsor: The Trail of Painted Ponies With QuarterHorse, New Jersey artist Kathy Morawski honors "America's Horse" with a design inspired by our currency.

Experimenting with the design and dimensionality of an actual quarter, and the sculptural form of the horse breed that goes by the same name, this former Art Director for a national magazine found the coin's features lent themselves to the existing contours of the horse.

"I particularly like how the eagle's wings flower into the horse's mane and tail," Kathy sayd.

"By focusing on the eagle and selected words of a quarter, it also offers an opportunity to reflect an additional theme of national allegiance." A silver finish, appearing "aged" for contrast, gives the appearance of the horse having been crafted from metal.
