The story about My Equi Art
My love for horses
My name is Amalia Thoors and i'm the founder of My Equi Art. I’ve always had a deep love for horses. Even as a toddler, I was drawn to their enchanting presence. I eagerly joined a riding school as soon as I could, and from that moment on, I dedicated as much time as possible to being around these magnificent creatures. However, the dream of owning my own horse had to wait. It wasn’t until I turned 30 that I finally welcomed Eros into my life.
An idea was born
Eros was a majestic chestnut, standing at 180 cm, with the most gorgeous head and blaze imaginable. I was utterly captivated by him, and every moment away from him was spent gazing at pictures of his beauty. It was during this time that the idea for "My Equi Art" was born—I wanted to bring Eros into my Scandinavian minimalist home.
My background
My professional background is in marketing and fashion, and I come from a family of graphic designers and artists. My mom spent my childhood professionally felting animals out of wool. Choosing graphic representation as my artistic expression for animals felt like the perfect fit for me. Today, I divide my time between my art, my role as Nordic Manager for the Italian brand Cavalleria Toscana, the stable, and my family.
Thank you
I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to all of you for placing your trust in me and supporting me on this exciting journey. Your enthusiasm has been truly incredible, and I am deeply grateful for it. Thank you.
