Welcome to the home of HollyWood Hopefuls and Holonic Beagles!

My name is Louise Pitt, I live in the UK and I first discovered the Model Horse Hobby over 14 years ago. Horses have always been a passion for me, and so has art, so it was natural for me to combine the two. I am a single mum now, and try to make a living from creating Equine Art, and also through my Photography.

Please feel free to browse the website, there is plenty to see!

BEAGLES - I own a breeding pair of Beagle dogs, whom have a litter of puppies every year. You will find pictures and information on this page.

PHOTOGRAPHY - Photography is another passion of mine, especially photographing wildlife, in particular birds and ducks. I have recently commissioned a series of 8 photographs I have taken to be printed into A6 notecards, for re-sale at fairs, in local shops, through Ebay, etc. If they prove to be a success, I hope to issue another series, and also release a few of the photos as Limited Edition prints.

THE MODEL HORSE HOBBY - A brief introduction to the hobby, information on the Live Shows that I hold and links to various other Model Horse sites.

MODEL HORSE TACK - My dear friend Deborah Fritz makes excellent tack for Model Horses. This page is a Gallery of her work, and gives information should you wish to commission a tack set from her.

FOR SALE - Fairly obvious, this page features any Model Horses I have for sale currently, though most pieces are now offered for a week exclusively at a discounted price on my Yahoo! Group (link - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hollywoodhopefuls/) before going to auction at Ebay.

SCULPTURES - Gallery of my completed sculptures (currently standing at just one completed sculpture!) with purchase information.

PAINTWORK GALLERY - Gallery of completed Model Horses I have customised and/or painted.

IN THE WORKS - Pictures and Information on Projects I am currently working on, including - Commissions, Sculptures and Painted Pieces for Re-Sale.

PAINTING ARTICLE - This is an Article I wrote on Painting in 2006 for the CASMES magazine. It may be useful to someone who is considering taking up painting themselves, or an interesting read for someone who just wants to find out more about painting Model Horses!

I am the extremely proud owner of Sian, my beloved Crabbet-bred pure Arabian mare, who has just 21 years of age in May 2007, and has been with me for many years! She is a source of inspiration for me, and I hope to sculpt her one day, hopefully not too far in the future! Below left, last time we went to a show, which was possibly 2000, and Sian won the Arab class, and took home Reserve Supreme Champion, so was very impressed with that as a last show! Below right, is a fantastic portrait of Sian that my dear friend Deb did for me.
