Plein Air Sketching and Painting in Zion National Park and Grafton Ghost Town

This two-day workshop was sponsored by the Hurricane Valley Art Alliance. We spent the first morning in the classroom learning how to see using the "Artists Brain." The first afternoon was spent at Grafton Ghost Town near Rockville. The final day was spent sketching and painting the cliffs and canyons of Zion National Park.
