14.01.2022 I will not forget the moment when I was given the honour to paint the great Morn Deck, I felt teary, honoured, humbled, couldn’t breathe, beyond excited all in ...a couple of minutes, here is his story, In 1999 Morn Deck was inducted into the Australian Quarter Horse Association Hall Of Fame in honour of his outstanding achievements and contribution to the Quarter Horse breed. He was born 7th of October 1976. He is a son of the super imported stallion Lion Deck who won over $US 34,500.00 in AAA Stakes races in the USA, and Doc’s Misty Morn an imported cutting mare, a daughter of Jandon (Nahar x Right Lead, granddaughter of Man O War)and the world famous chestnut stallion Doc Bar who revolutionized the cutting horse industry. He was purchased by Brian and Mathea Usher in 1977 and stayed with them his whole life. In 1980 he achieved an Australian first at the Australian Quarter Horse Championships by winning the Supreme National Champion Exhibit at Halter award for the second year in succession. In 1981 he was sashed as the Champion Stallion, and was also judged as the Supreme Exhibit of the Victorian State Championships. Morn Deck holds AQHA Awards for Hunter Under Saddle - Register of Merit, Halter - ROM, Superior Horse, and Achievement, Performance - ROM, and Quarter Horse Champion, Western Pleasure - ROM, and a ROM in Bridal Path Hack. Over the years Morn Deck has dominated the AQHA Leading Sires List and it is no surprise when his exceptional progeny have excelled in all areas, For Mathea owning and showing Morn Deck has been a wonderful life long experience, It was exciting, back in those days when we showed him it was the biggest buzz that you could get. This painting is made up from multiple photos of him and I am proud of the end result. Thank you Mathea for asking me to paint him. Santa Rio Quarter Horse Stud - Mathea Usher See more
