Ransom
$2,500I am Here to Support The Barrett Jackson Charities.
My Artist is Niki Woehler.
Strong, elegant and awe inspiring, that is how Canadian born artist Niki Woehler describes her amazing horse Ransom. She wanted him to evoke a sense of mystery and curiosity about what this incredible animal was up to. Niki named the horse Ransom because she wanted everyone to feel this horse had a real edge to it. We know that once you see him on display, you will know that the spirit around him is something very special.

Super Bowl LVII Spirit
$2,500I am sponsored by The Rotary Club of Scottsdale.
My artist is Vanessa Ortiz-Zapata.
I am here to support the Rotary Club of Scottsdale.
I was painted along with INSPIRE
The process of painting the two stallions has been an exciting one for Ortiz. More than 20 drafts of the two stallion designs were created before the NFL gave its final approval. From there, she painted the two pieces from start to finish in about one month.
The two Stallions are representative of the sunrises and sunsets in Arizona. There are various native plants and animals pictured on both Stallions, with callouts in the form of a diamondback rattlesnake and cardinal, and of course, the Super Bowl LVII logo.
"What I was keeping in mind is the sunsets and sun downs, how we have the beautiful, gorgeous reds and pinks, and how it contrasts between the greens. People think when they see Arizona, it's all desert, dry and brown," Ortiz said. "No, there's multiple colors out there. You just have to know where to see and look at it. And especially when it rains, it's a whole green world out there."
Ortiz's two stallions will make their way to Old Town Scottsdale in the coming days and will be on display for the public to see and take photos of until March 2023. On April 15, the Stampede Gala Auction at Royal Arabians will take place, the Stallions will be auctioned off, and the proceeds will be given to select charities.

The personification of strength and intelligence is the theme of this beautiful horse that fantastic local artist LuAnn Beardmore has created for us.

Every muscle and sinew of this horse is dedicated to bringing out the spirit and pride of Native Americans who were known as the people of the horse.

$2,500I am sponsored by TGen.
My artist is Nicole Laizure.
I am here to support TGen Foundation.
Arizona is a state rich in colors and spirit. Our great local artist, Nichole Laizure, has captured those riches in her stallion that she has brought to life. Fittingly she named it Arizona. Nichole has given her horse the platform to celebrate that beautiful scenery, and also allowed him to be captured rearing up in defiance of mediocrity.

$2,500I am sponsored by The Dream Center.
My artist is Jana Peterson.
I am here to support The Phoenix Dream Center.
That "Aha!" moment when you realize there is a different way to do something. That is the theme of this wonderful horse Epiphany. It was brought to life by long time, successful Paradise Valley artist Jana Peterson. Her use of color, patterns and trees are meant to give pause to the viewer. She hopes that this design can give people the freedom and space they need to think in new ways. That certainly is the case with Epiphany.

ESPERANZA
$2,500I am sponsored by the City of Scottdale.
My artist is Julie Mason.
I am here to support The Rotary Club of Scottsdale.
Talented local artist Julie Mason had such a good time painting her horse Esperanza, which means hope in Spanish, that it became a labor of love for her. The horse is so large she needed to paint in her garage and was met with transfixed faces and offers to help from her neighbors and friends. Esperanza is sponsored by the City of Scottsdale and it could not be more appropriate. Julie chose to have one side of this beautiful horse as a sunrise and the other side as a sunset. What a cool way to portray life in the City of Scottsdale which tries very hard to give it citizens and visitors hope for the future every day.

PROCESSION
$2,500I am sponsored by Simonson Buildings.
My artist is Danielle Berkowitz.
I am here to support The Singletons.
Procession is brought to life and is the brainchild of a very talented young artist, Danielle Berkowitz. Danielle is a senior at Arizona State University (ASU) studying Art History. She created Procession to be a proud ambassador of this partnership between horse and rider and how they tamed the land. Her sponsor, Paul Simonson of Simonson Buildings, loved the idea of using cowboys as the example of they helped settle Scottsdale. Procession proudly rises up to tell people this is his story, and he wants you pay attention.
When you bid on Procession you will celebrate how horses helped shape Scottsdale into what it is today. More than that, she gives all of us a glimpse of art history in the guise of an incredibly powerful force which is Procession. Danielle believes that the all things that she gave to Procession turns out to be the very instruments that make him so imposing and captivating.

SUNFLOWER SOUL
$2,500I am sponsored by City of Scottsdale.
My artist is Tiesha Harrison.
I am here to support The Rotary Club of Scottsdale.
Tiesha is thrilled that the City of Scottsdale has sponsored Sunflower Soul because she knows that her horse can pay back the city by helping the community to come together and bring people joy. She chose the name Sunflower Soul because Sunflowers are synonymous with the Sun and light and a fresh beginning. Soul symbolically refers to this magnificent rearing horse's desire to bring about positive changes within us, and the power to see it done.
By bidding on this amazing work of art, you can help to share Sunflower Souls radiance to others. Sunflower Soul is caught rearing up and showing his power. Tiesha tapped into that power to encourage people to explore their inner being, and find their true authentic self. That sentiment is important for all of us to share.

Triumph
$2,500I am sponsored by AZAdvances.
My artist is Nichole Laizure.
I am here to support AZ Advances.
I was painted at the Museum of the West
Wonderful local artist Nichole Laizure brings to life this majestic rearing horse aptly named Triumph fresh off his victory in the big race. It feels that after all the celebrations of the rider and the crowd has settled down, Triumph takes a moment to revel in his own victory over his rivals. It is awesome that the turquoise finishing line tape that Triumph captured when crossing the finish line first is still proudly wrapped around his chest. What a moment of victory that we proudly share with all of you.
