Kentucky Derby and horse and riders by Gloria Poole of Missouri and Georgia

I,  Gloria Poole, am putting this  mini-exhibit is because every spring the Kentucky Derby, the Steeplechase, the Triple Crown, horse races take place in several countries including state of Kentucky and NY in the U S and in Great Britain.  I draw horse from time to time and usually about this time of year. Also, the sketch of woman in hat is because it's dress up affair at horse races and most women do wear hats to them.  I drew, painted, signed and named all of these sketches. The only one in this batch that is a real person's image is Zara Phillips of Great Britain, who is a world-reknown equestrian and also Queen Elizabeth's grand-daughter and a new mother recently.

I removed the Pappas name from my name forevermore by order of District Court Judge at time of final decree of divorce in Oct 2007 from [male] DBP of Colorado.  I am also known on the web as; gloriapoole; Gloria as on art such as this which I signed when I  completed it; gloria.poole; gloria-poole; gloria0817; gpoole817; gloria_poole; gloriapoole1749; gloriapoole.RN; gloriapooleRN at yahoo in which the RN means standard abbreviation for Registered Nurse; and as artist-gloria; artist-gloriapoole; gloriapoole-paintings; Poole, Gloria; Ms. Gloria Poole; Gloria Poole of words that WORK;   and as other variations of my real, born with, legal name of Gloria Poole.

And I am known as G-L-O-R-I-A on http://gloriapoole.wordpress.com and I had three domains with much art I created with my name written that way, for about 6 yrs until they were stolen from me by cyberthugs.  I also had many domains and many with my very name written as gloriapoole in them from years 2004-2011 when criminals broke into my web-hosting accounts and ripped my domains and content right out-of-admin-panel.  I have not bought domains since , because there is no security on web-hosting 'packages" because  they do not honor business law or contract laws.
