We started with a visit to the Worthington Gallery where art scholar and author Donna Poulton (below) was signing copies of her new book "painters of Utah's Canyons and Deserts" which was co-authored with Vern Swanson. I am fortunate to be included in the book, and she was gracious to sign my copy. My painting "Wild and Free" from the permanent collection of the Springville Museum of Art is in the book.
While there we bought a couple of Greg's pots (left) and watched Kate Starling (below) at work on a Zion painting.
We enjoyed visiting several artist homes and studios. The view from many of the studios was breathtaking in itself. What a fantastic place for artists to live and work.
Royden Card's studio in Virgin has an incredible view of the desert mesas. He showed us around and we bought a woodcut print of Zion we had our eye on for awhile.
Marilyn Alltucker's home and studio sits high on a rocky ridge with Zion views to die for.
Anne Weiler-Brown was part of the plein air paint out and helped organize the events.
Barbara Ellard does unique collage and paper designs.
Nellie tries her hand at weaving on the loom of Aleen McGuire. We bought Aleen's weaving at the art auction.
