Nina Kaiser Equine Bronze Sculptures

Description

Nina Kaiser grew up in Northern California where she spent as much of her childhood as possible on horseback. While still a teenager, a chance encounter with the former owner of her retired racehorse introduced her to the world of horseracing. She spent the next 20 years working as an exercise rider and assistant trainer at racetracks across America and in Europe.

A lifelong aptitude for art led her to begin to experiment in creating sculptures of horses in the mid eighties. Her work came to the attention of friends and associates in the racing community who were instrumental in helping her to obtain her first commissions. Since that time, Ms. Kaiser's reputation has grown steadily and her work is now represented in collections around the world. She has been commissioned to portray many of the most prominent horses of our times, the short list of which includes Sunday Silence, A.P. Indy, Serena's Song, Azeri and Symboli Kris S. In addition, she has designed trophies

for Santa Anita, Del Mar, Hollywood Park, Golden Gate Fields and Bay Meadows. She has also done portraits of popular racing personalities Bill Shoemaker, Charlie Whittingham, and the bust of Laffit Pincay Jr., which stands in the paddock gardens of Santa Anita Racetrack. This commission is soon to be joined by her current work-in-progress, a bust of jockey Chris McCarron.
