Veryl Goodnight began her career as a wildlife artist in the 1970s as a painter, but she found she enjoyed sculpting, and within five years, was sculpting exclusively.  Later she took up painting again.  Of her work she says:  "The horse is my favorite subject.  I live with them, ride them, feed them and clean up after them."
