#319 In the field: 31st annual Art Show and Sale, Buffalo Bill Historical Center, Cody, Wyoming, con't . .

Collectors love the excitement of a Quick Draw, and the Cody, Wyoming show (see Monday's Blog,  #318)
presents a fast-paced and popular event for art lovers.  Painters and sculptors are given one hour to create
a work of art.  The rules are strict:  Painters start with a blank canvas, and sculptors start with a blank armature.
The horn sounds and the artists give it their best shot!

I spent the summer completing an enormous moose monument and the logical critter to model was a head
study of a moose.  Happily, the collectors liked my creation and 12 castings sold at the auction.
