Fans of abstract art and Thoroughbred horses have the opportunity to own some unique home décor this week with the 2012 auction of “Moneighs.” A play on the name of French impressionist painter Claude Monet, Moneighs are paintings created by horses—with some human assistance—using paint brushes, tails, muzzles and/or whiskers to create abstract works of art.
The paintings in the current eBay auction were created by Thoroughbred race horses. Fittingly, the proceeds will go to ReRun, a group that facilitates adoptions of retired racehorses.
Among this year’s equine artists are:
