I'm honored to share that I received the Best in Show award at this year's Grand Canyon Celebration of Art! I'm especially happy to share the spotlight with my 2 good friends, Michelle Condrat for People's Choice and John Cogan for Artist's Choice!
It was award enough just to be invited! 🙏🎨✨️

First in the Narrows, 24x12, oil.

Thinking of the North Rim and all the changes that have come and of the hard work that's still being done. It will be interesting to see how the area recovers. Considered giving to the park in some way if you can.
Angel's Window (12×12, oil) for the Grand Canyon Celebration of Art in Sept.

A new, small Grand Canyon painting (11x14, oil). It's from somewhere along the East Rim Drive, looking down canyon at part of Woman's Throne and Angel's Gate. I've forgotten the exact location.

This is an oil painting of the Grand Canyon I made recently.
The canyon is one of my favorite subjects! I'm an artist from cental Arizona. You can see more of what I do on my art website www.billcramerstudio.com

Just another case of infuriating, hypocritical IOKIYAR.

George Grosz, 'Drinnen und Draussen' (Trans. 'Inside and Outside', 1926). History rhyming.

It's more than gaining knowledge. Not religious, but Matthew 16:26 seems appropriate, "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul?" I'm an oil painter, and my motto has always been, "No paint is wasted." Enjoy the journey/process.
