Art is everywhere … especially in the barn aisle this time of year.

This week, we wanted to see Horse Nation’s creative side and called for your best horsehair creations from the piles of fluff thanks to spring shedding season. As always, our readers delivered — here are four amazing horsehair sculptures.

Least favorite part of #Spring. But I still our big shedding yak of a #horse. Here’s tonight’s 2 inch deep harvest of #winter hair, w/my big size 10 feet for scale

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” (Caleb Colton, 1820)…. My friend Jess (of Wicked Awesome Grooming – anyone with dogs in the Sterling/Franklin MA area with dogs should call her!!) does this with dog hair. It’s hilarious and I love it. Taking a page from her book of awesome, just using horse hair instead.

A little late to HN’s deadline but I’m still posting her anyway. My horse’s coat shedding art creation. It’s a person! Complete with a pony-tail. #horsenation #sheddingart #horsehairart A photo posted by Kristen (@kpie329) on Mar 22, 2016 at 4:12pm PDT
