Thanks to the Zion Forever Project and many volunteers who made the 10th annual Zion National Park Plein Air Invitational a huge success. Sale proceeds benefitted the Zion Youth Initiative in its efforts to introduce future generations to the beauty of our nation’s special places. 24 artists just enjoyed a week of outdoor painting, live demonstrations, Paint outs, Silent Auction and Wet Paint sale at Zion National Park. This year was one of the best with warm sunny days, and brilliant fall colors. I was pleased to see several of my past collectors as well as meet some wonderful new collectors who purchased 8 of my paintings. In addition to the collectors shown below I would also like to thank Amy Woodward for purchasing my live demo painting “Altar of Sacrifice,” Peter Kirk for purchasing “Morning Light” and Steven and Jenny Goodwin for purchasing my studio painting “View from Scout Lookout.”
