SUMMARY:Michael Koski - Guest Artist
DESCRIPTION:Glimpse of Montana Watercolors – Michael Koski\nAs a Red Lodge\, Montana\, native\, Michael’s relationship with the mountains of Montana developed early in his life.  Fishing trips in the Beartooth Mountains with his grandfather reinforced his appreciation of nature’s beauty\, as well as fostered a curiosity of geology.  Michael went on to earn a degree in geology from the University of Montana\, always mixing art classes in with his science curriculum.  He considers himself lucky to have taken classes from Ben Steele at Eastern Montana College and Dr. Dew at the University of Montana.  As his geology career marched on\, Michael continued taking workshops with many fine local and regional artists whose influence is seen in his art.  After 39 years in geology\, it was time to work on his second passion and focus on watercolor. \nArtist Statement\n“Watercolor’s magic helps me capture life’s inspirations.  I continue to grow as an artist\, enhancing my skills\, occasionally successfully merging magic\, subject\, and mood to produce a timeless piece.” \nContact Information:\nMichael Koski\nBusiness name:  A glimpse of Montana Watercolor\nAddress:  Box 706 Columbus Montana 59019\nPhone: (406) 780-0363\nEmail: mkoskigeo@gmail.com\nWeb site:  glimpseofmt.com \nPortfolio

SUMMARY:Featured Artist: Ken Dvorak
DESCRIPTION:Ken Dvorak\nFeatured Artist\nDates: March/April\, 2023 \nHi\, I’m Ken Dvorak\, a retired teacher\, who decided to become a Fine Art Nature Photographer.  We recently moved back to Montana from Washington state.  We lived in the rain shadow of the Olympic National Park.  It was an area where I had wanted to take photos for a long time.  Now I’m exploring Montana for images to add to my portfolio. \n\n\nMy photography career started back in the late 60’s when I was in the Navy.  I worked in an office onboard a ship in Newport\, RI.  In our office was the ship’s photo lab and I became friends with the ship’s photographer.  I bought a used 35mm Pentax and started shooting black and white images around Newport.  I was able to use the ship’s lab after the work day and learned how to develop black and white film and print my images.  Later I set up my digital darkroom at our house.  My current darkroom is in our basement. \n\n\nI like the idea of having control over my images from the click of the shutter to seeing the final print come out of the printer.  I also mat and frame my own images for display and sale. \n\n\nI was accepted in June of 2022 to join the Sandstone Gallery. \n\n\nHope you enjoy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKen Dvorak Fine Art Photography

SUMMARY:Featured Artist: Victoria Wetsch
DESCRIPTION:Victoria Wetsch\nFeatured Artist\nDates: March/April\, 2023 \nCurrently I am working from my Montana studio in Billings using a variety of techniques and mediums such as oil-based paints\, oil pencil and encaustics. I also work with water-based inks\, watercolor and graphite. In particular\, encaustic is one of my favorite mediums. I like to achieve the character of hot wax painting by suspending textures\, images and pigments through many layers of fused medium. Encaustic medium requires a specific proportion of purified beeswax mixed with natural fossilized resin\, blended with oil-based pigments. My original encaustic works have a unique\, lustrous and sculptural appeal. The painting cures and hardens into an ever-enduring work of art while the pollen in the wax produces a final golden luster\, leaving a natural fragrance of beeswax. Throughout time\, encaustic paintings have proven their longevity and exceptional archival properties when cared for as with all fine art forms. \n\n\nAbout Victoria:\nhttps://sandstonegallerymt.com/victoria-wetsch/\n\n\n\nSome of Victoria’s Work:\n6545A43F-3C0D-41F5-96EC-1D7D5A6DB4F98F23F96D-966C-4678-BF9F-1961E1EB3BD3224CD43D-BD18-4614-8DD4-AF8BE3E14664072B612C-C278-4608-8312-68816F621B9C8DDCF921-548B-4953-A6C2-D619BA07AFB5C6C9764B-C2A5-4B0E-B243-BA42E33A443B7A10A62B-2AF2-4E49-99CF-101451C63284124F914D-6CC4-4C73-A23F-84AF0BEB7BAECC05FC74-D5AE-461E-93C1-985BE2E7071D550020C6-D238-4C3E-B5C8-FC3C2B3F9FA8A3990D13-123D-42F5-8588-8ED174404CD51A868F34-0BAC-4F2F-9486-4532C1F348EE54A1A359-7351-4062-9F79-3F6EA71BD7EBE5A7F9E3-A03C-4ADE-A478-F93D22D263027E297022-E03B-47B1-B738-78E84BEDD9A6456A92B9-9156-4968-96A1-BE62B25604CADC67A858-26DA-4983-A12B-87D13BCCFF0335D8F6D3-C910-4E4E-AFE1-1A4EE856F25A3C39496F-164B-4C76-983A-4CFA54A3B179BE6237EA-9504-4675-85B4-633939EF96A65ACC7EA8-5805-4CCD-8F23-9AF5082B0F56F11FB20C-3C80-40C6-A4C3-791C579B3CF3136CA0ED-AFC1-4035-B052-6BE7FA518F2329CA2639-63FB-47B4-A3DF-C603BBC37C0EB2BF14AD-D8F7-424F-AC1A-E1F53C38ED706E8A6E99-FA89-4000-98DB-92243A43AB9C8B87D56A-81F9-4B60-A500-32DAA5CA4CAF3A9B8EB6-AED0-41F1-BF91-350498BA897A3181ABA2-E6D4-4949-8A0C-5F440BEFF2320BDAE236-30C0-471E-B8B3-7B53FEDFBCC8DC35300E-20D2-4135-AD36-5BFDF4E7C4486F4FC981-EEE3-4B03-99D3-705CAB775479BA4731B6-EFF9-4DE9-94E2-735FA822B82FB23C6217-6F04-40BB-91F7-AEAB926303D3D58E4CF9-F67B-4F64-A4EF-700B891FA33C4D96CDF3-3DC5-419A-AFC8-BDBEB40C0C2C7AFFCC36-EE53-48D7-9953-7E439D9C2274BB055A0B-C893-499C-8965-10161B9A42727838D7A4-5A10-4C6E-99A9-C2CED5364389B8007583-E99D-4D75-888E-6B87259FF8A7

SUMMARY:Billings Art Association - Carolyn Kennedy
DESCRIPTION:Carolyn Kennedy\nBillings Arts Association\nFEATURED ARTIST \nDates: April 1 – May 27 \n“I was born and raised in the shadows of the mountains of southwestern Montana. As a young woman\, I decided to learn oil painting. Life took me to Fresno\, California\, and art took me from oils to watercolor. I later moved to Los Angeles and acrylics. After some experimentation\, I discovered a way to layer clear and pigmented acrylics and mixed media. I use this technique to paint my emotional response to the external environment and to my internal life. Several years ago\, I returned to Montana and am again finding inspiration in the beauty of my native state.” \n–Carolyn Kennedy \nWelcome to Sandstone\, Carolyn! \n\nABOUT BIILLINGS ARTS ASSOCIATION  \n\n\nPORTFOLIO:
