Artist Details: Ellen Sokoloff considers herself an “American painter.” Her artwork preserves scenes from an earlier time in our country’s history. Childhood memories of western trips along historic Route 66, American’s “Mother Road”, inspired the collage of diners, motels, gas stations and tourist attractions that embellish her Painted Pony.

Make sure to keep all the materials for this pony: his box, styrofoam, story tags.. because they are valuable.
