Above are photos of the "Painted Applique" Mural, created with my wife Donna Pence for the Chuck Wagon Store in Torrey Utah. Like a quilt, it combines stories and images important to local Wayne County lore - including Butch Cassidy, Etta Place and the Sundance Kid who frequented the town near Capitol Reef. Below are photos from the Wheeler Farm Project completed in 2022. It was a delight to work with Sara Roach - the educational director at Wheeler Farm to design 6 pictorial themes to inform students of the environment and habitats at Wheeler Farm for the new Outdoor Education Building. Special thanks to John Riddle for his assistance installing these panels.
This summer, and into this fall, I had the pleasure of getting to work on this mixed media commission (acrylic on both canvas and plywood) for the Greg White Family as a Christmas present for his wife. Bill & Nada's, The Promised Valley Playhouse and The Inn at Temple Square hold special memories for Greg and his wife. Greg and I connected through Bill & Nada's imagery that I had previously painted and posted on Flickr. Thank You so much Greg for this commission and for your generosity to me, as an artist and a friend. The dimensions on this piece are approximately 48" wide, 20" tall and an inch deep.
