The bull Page created for the Treehouse’s rodeo exhibit has been ridden more than 500,000 times in its first year by the roughest and toughest children in the West.

Young ropers and reiners have gotten a kick out of riding the reliable Paint, who does his job right every time. And for those who enjoy a leisurely ride, the Treehouse’s “How the West Was Fun” exhibit features a prancing Palomino.

Page’s rocking horses also have been a hit with cowboys and cowgirls of all ages at the Kentucky Horse Park since 2002. Like at the Treehouse, the pair of horses the artist carved for the American Saddlebred Museum are part of an arena exhibit, allowing visitors to pose for pictures — when they stop rocking, of course.
