My name is Missy Halvas. I am an equine miniatures artist specializing in Arabian costumes, Marwari halters, Akhal Teke collars, model horse finish work and hairing. I'm passionate about horses and art, and found a way to the combine the two with the model horse hobby. I started dabbling in model horse tack in about 1999, but I've been collecting models on and off my whole life. I was born and raised in fridgid northern Minnesota, but now currently reside with my family in upper Michigan. I spend most of my time being a homemaker, caring for two growing boys, a husband, four animals, and an old victorian house. When I find precious alone time I get lost in the world of art and miniatures and make all kinds of horse things!
