Thomas Allen Pauly Portrays Shore Breeze, 2010 Illinois Stallion of the Year

Shore Breeze's owner John F. Haran receives my watercolor painting of his Stallion of the Year at Hawthorne Racecourse on February 12, 2011.

Recently, I was commissioned by editor Joan Colby of the Illinois Racing News to portray Shore Breeze, the 2010 Illinois Stallion of the Year. He is a 13 year old brown horse (Danzig - Sea Breeze, by Gulch) bred by Morven Stud, Ltd.  He stands at John F. Haran's Eagle Valley Farm North...This is my second portrayal of Shore Breeze.

Secretariat Book Features Thomas Allen Pauly Painting

Waiting for Secretariat painting by Thomas Allen Pauly featured in Secretariat's Meadow book.

Secretariat’s Meadow – The Land, The Family, The Legend by Kate Chenery Tweedy & Leeanne Ladin featured my oil painting titled Waiting for Secretariat. The original oil painting is in the collection of Secretariat's owner Penny Chenery. I was commissioned by Arlington Park Racetrack to portray her racing silks and the portrait was presented to Ms. Chenery as their inaugural Woman in Racing award.

I was most honored when Kate Chenery Tweedy (Penny's daughter) asked if she could feature the portrait in her book about Secretariat and her family. It is a wonderful book and was released a month before the very successful Secretariat movie debut. Congratulations to all...
