Small Green Acrylic Dala Horse by Tara Austin

Oh! These hand-painted acyrlic Dala Horses are just stunning! Tara Austin has been teaching her artistic skills at North House with Rosemaling for several years now, and we are so happy to be able to present these unique works of art in our school store and online. This smaller acrylic horse is painted in shades of green and white.  The small horse stands 4" tall, 3.75" from nose to tail and .5" deep.

Tara received her MFA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Painting. In 2014 she took her first rosemaling class at North House. Since then she completed a yearlong Rosemaling Apprenticeship with a Vesterheim Gold Medalist focusing on Telemark and Gudbransdal. In 2017 Tara traveled to Norway to continue her research of rosemaling funded by a research grant from UW Madison. She is currently one of our talented Artisans in Residence!
