The Plein Air Painters of Idaho
5:30 PM     View Venue PageGarden City Library

Description:
WHO: The Plein Air Painters of Idaho (PAPI), April’s featured artists
at the Books and Brushes Program at the Garden City Library, include
Dee Miller, Gertrude Hudson, Christine Howard, Wendy Blickenstaff, Fred Choate, Len Sodenkamp, Helen Granger Wilson, and E.Rose/Elkovich.

WHAT: Plein Air Painters paint on location, "alla Prima," from life,
thereby capturing moments in time forever preserved for the enjoyment
of the viewer.  The varied styles of each artist loosely capture the
essence of Idaho's vast canyon lands, high deserts, valleys, native
prairies, lakes and rivers and the floral life of the lush landscapes
in the west.

WHEN:  Exhibit on display with art for sale during the month of April.
Artist Reception Wednesday, April 9 from 5:30-7:30 is open to the
public at no charge.  Each participating artist will share about their
art and themselves, and Len Sodenkamp will demonstrate the unique style of a Plein Air artist.  Refreshments will be served.

WHERE:  The Garden City Library is located at 6015 Glenwood, at the
intersection of Glenwood and Marigold Streets, on the river.

WHY:  Bud Katich of Image Maker Art and Framing coordinates the Books and Brushes program for the Garden City Library Foundation.  Different artists are featured each month in a cross-section of creative mediums. Art is offered for sale, and 20% of proceeds from sales are donated to benefit the Library.  For more information about the Books and Brushes program, or exhibiting in the future, please contact Image Maker Art and Framing at   208 378-4417.
