The PPRPFFA want to share it with you all the release of a unique poster specially created for the 2009 Paso Fino Celebration Show by Kofresi Royal Farm and the artist Luis Enrique Garcia Cooper.
The 2009 Paso Fino Celebration Show commemorative poster is a fusion of patriotic colors, eye-catching shapes and unique styles that represent the celebration show’s 22 years of excellence in fine sportsmanship and camaraderie. Popping out of the fashionable, patriotic pieces, the poster’s vivid images appear 3D on the concave work of art. Lively, free-flowing images of flags, patriotic colors and the paso fino horse shape showcase the excitement and creativity that the Paso Fino Celebration Show brings to the PPR Paso Fino community in the United States.
If you couldn't make the Celebration show last year, don't worry. We're bringing you the best pictures of last year show. Alexis Sutton showed once again the remarkable versatility of the PPR Paso Fino breed.
