This year they gave us 90 minutes to do our quick-draw which seemd like a long time when one is used to doing them in 45 or 60 minutes. So I got to do a lot more detail than usual. It auctioned for $2200.00 so maybe that was worth it. I was certainly happy with it.
We spent the better portion of the day then running into old artist friends and meeting new ones at all the gallery shows going on. Also took in the Miniature Show and the Western Visions show at the Wildlife Art Museum. Both great shows.
By sunset we were on Pacific Creek which has been closed off to all tent and pop-up campers due to Grizzly activity. We hiked along the stream bed until running across a very large grizzly track in a sand bar. Vicki declared the day over. And it was after a hamburger at the Hatchet Restaurant on the way home.

Good grief Gary, I can't keep up with you! More amazing paintings and travelling - but what are you thinking hiking in Grizzly territory - listen to your wife - DAY OVER! Stay away from them critters, please!!! A friend was just at Jackson Hole and visted many galleries there; she will be sorry she missed this art show by a weekk!
Congratulations on such an auction price--wow! It's a lovely painting. And an equally lovely day, it looks like. I definitely could do without the grizzly capper!
Congratulations! Sounds like a great day.
Have been catching up on blogging and really enjoyed my vist here this evening! Congratulations on the quick draw sale! That's fantastic! The painting is beautiful. Looks like a great turn out for the Jackson Hole Festival! Sure wish I could have been there. You have been busy and your travels looked like fun! Thanks so much for sharing! Listen to Vicki - stay away from the grizzlys!
