In the last years of his life Maynard Dixon (1875-1946) built a log and stone cabin in the high arid country of Southern Utah with his artist wife Edith Hamlin Dixon. Now in 2010, the home and property have been restored and the last week of August has been dedicated for the Maynard Dixon Country Event. This year will mark the twelfth celebration where 32 nationally known artists are invited to participate in the painting excursions, exhibition, sale and awards ceremony. This year, noted contemporary artist Clyde Aspevig will be the guest of honor and will give a presentation on his artistic career and a painting demonstration on Saturday afternoon. The event opens to the public Friday, August 27 with a preview and sale and continues with a wet painting sale on Saturday morning in the old Dixon studio and a gala celebration that evening on the big lawn surrounded by the shade of cottonwood trees. Sponsored by the Thunderbird Foundation for the Arts, the event is a fund raiser to keep the Dixon property and the art programs offered there.

Also amazing is the flies who are attracted to such topics in order to drop their larvae..........You dropped your larvae now go away.

It’s nice there are still artists with talent. All you see in the news are the social ones that can’t draw a stick figure getting all the attention.
