“VG Tulips” by Beth Blackwell Cullen I love painting tulips, especially yellow tulips. They brighten and warm up any day! And Vincent Van Gogh's art is a constant source of inspiration for me, as was his masterful use of the color yellow. This painting encapsulates two things I love dearly - nature and an appreciation for art history.

“Pink Peonies” by Beth Blackwell Cullen This painting came together very quickly, as you might notice from my brush strokes. I picked up a fresh bouquet of peonies, put them on my kitchen counter, saw them sparkling in the sun and felt so inspired that I pulled all of my paints into the kitchen and got to work. So much fun to paint in the spur of the moment!

“Mountain Creek” By Ann Currey Oil on panel 24 x 19 $1,400.00 Mountain creek is an oil painting done from a small study in the mountains trying to capture the dramatic shadows of the day.

“Days Gone By” by Ann Currey 18 x 21 oil on panel $1,100.00 Days Gone By is an oil painting of a barn near our farm. It has been in the same family for generations, a welcome sight in our rapidly changing rural areas.

“The Blue Bottle” by Melody Boggs Oil on linen 22 x 19 $895.00 Initially, this painting is all about color. I loved the reflections in the bottle and the yellow sunflowers against the blue - so beautiful! But, I wanted the viewer to feel the textures - from the delicate green glass to the thicker blue bottle and the blue and white pitcher, softened by the organic elements - sunflowers, apple and berries! I loved painting this one!

“Wrangler Memories #26 Nat Love” by Cecile Morgan \"This is one of the latest in my Wrangler Memories series of paintings. I love finding vintage black and white photographs, circa 1880 to 1950ish. I enjoy cropping these images and adding my own color harmony, much in the same fashion of the illustrators from the Golden Age of illustration. They used photo reference, but none of it was in color. That left them at liberty to create exactly the color harmony suitable for what they wished to communicate.This is based on an antique image of the great Black cowboy Nat Love. About 25% of the west's cowboys were black, but it is very difficult to find actual images of them from the past.\"

“Wrangler Memories # 27 George Fletcher” by Cecile Morgan \"This is one of the latest in my Wrangler Memories series of paintings.

“Old Carmel” by Breda Roberts 16X20 oil on linen panel $400 painted 1/2020 Old Carmel- oil in linen panel. The missions of California are a huge part of its history. When visiting Carmel Mission, the light is ever changing. I have had the opportunity to paint on the grounds many times. Enjoy the beauty and history.

“Serene” by Breda Roberts 11X14 oil on linen panel $350 painted 4/2020 Serene- oil on panel. When an opportunity presents itself for me to go to the mountains in the summer, I am always ready to go. To canoe on the lakes of the cool mountains brings joy but most of all serenity.

\"Arizona Healer\" by Donna Catotti 16\"x12\" oil on canvas panel 2019 $1200 Windraven modeled for our group from American Women Artists who were in town for their show, \"Under a Vast Sky\" at Tucson Desert Art Museum. Windraven held two different poses while we artists painted from life at a lovely park outside of town. He is a native American healer and shaman from the area. Finish work was done later in my studio with photo reference.

\"Cactus in Rockville\" by Donna Catotti 8\"x16\" oil on canvas panel 2019 $650 Rockville, Utah is just down the road from Zion National Park. These cactus up against the cliffs were at my friend's house in Rockville, and were painted on location just a few years ago. In my younger days I worked as a cook for Grand Canyon Dories, based nearby, and spent a good part of many summers in the vicinity of Zion, Rockville, and Hurricane, exploring red rock country and the desert environs.

“First Snow” by Michael Strickland Watercolor $385 Winter snowfall in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park ranges from a few inches in the lower elevations to better than 5 feet at higher elevations like Newfound Gap. We know from the stand of Fraser Fir trees in this scene that we are above about 4000 feet in elevation. From my memories, this depiction presents the view from the road leading to Mount Mitchell and is of the First Snow early in the season. It only hints at the winter wonderland that is to come! I enjoy painting snow scenes and this is my favorite painting from 2020 because it combines the snow and one of my favorite places, Mount Mitchell in the Smoky Mountains.

“Deep in the Smokies” by Michael Strickland Watercolor $385 I have enjoyed many vacations in the Great Smoky Mountains beginning about 65 years ago when I was 9. My first camping trip to the Smokies was with my parents up to Mount Mitchell, which at 6684 feet is the highest peak east of the Mississippi. Even though it was in the summer, it got COLD at night! This painting is of the view I remember from the road leading up to Mount Mitchell. You can tell that we are at high elevation from the presence of a stand of Fraser Fir trees which only grow in the Appalachian Mountains above 3900 feet elevation. One of my favorite places in the world!
