Idaho Painters Guild evolved as a result of a backyard barbegne amongst a group of several fellow
landscape oil painters. We are a social group of Idaho painters and Iove nothing more than bo
encourage each other's successes. Several of us have wan awards and artistic achievements and
many of the Guild members are professional artists selling their pieces to the general public. One
of our members is our mentor, Fred Choate, whom the FBS Channe141abels `Fainter of Idaho".
Membership is open to all Idaho based painters, regardless of genre, who show a seriousness to
evolve into professional 9~tY l~• ®Ve look forward to having new members join as we
journey together in creativity an+d joy in our artistic endeavors. The Guild ffiennbers have developed
friendships that have grown close and deep as we all share the love of natlue's beauty in Idaho as
well as our mutual need to express oar vision and creativity with oil paints on canvas.
If chosen, this exlu'bition will attest to the many beautiful. and encha~tg scenes ~
changing seasons in Idaho as seen through the eyes of the artist with each of us having a unique
artistic style. Together the exhibition provides a weIl rounded view into the awe and amazement of
our beautifi~l state. Many of the paintings will have been l~~ on site as several of us utilize
`~-lein airs' t~hruques.
The Idaho Paintexs Guild will provide a selection of professional oil landscapes, buy
framed, ready to hang acxordintg to the specifications required by the MAC. Each piece will be
labeled with the loc~.tion of where it was painted, The Guild would like to have the full exhibition
space and will gladly replace pieces as they are sold as to maintain the full utilisation of space
allotted for this exlu'bition. The pieces range in size from 9"x l2" up to 16" x 20". Prices are
affordable and vary from $7fl.0fl up to $500.flfl.
If the MAC requests, the Idaho Paiate~.s Gmld will offer li~ndscape oil P~~g classes through the
instruction of Fred Choate ($20.fl0 for a two hour class) for those who would like the opportunity ,
to explore their artistic passion. These group classes are infornnative, fun and a great outlet for °
connecting with ones creative side.
Our work is clean, whole~me and offers the viewers a z~sgite into nature as they take time out to
step into each work of art.
