Heart Mountain

Heart Mountain Pastel 9x12

 This  painting was chosen for the 2016 Mile High Pastel Exhibit in Denver Colorado. The show opens on July 7th on the 7th floor of the Denver Library and runs through September 8th.   
We travel our state each year and finally took time to visit Heart Mountain Just outside Cody Wyoming. The Mountain is the scene for the camp that confined Japanese American's during WWII. 
See the show and see the mountain. 

From the web page, In August of 2011, the Heart Mountain Wyoming Foundation opened its doors to the Heart Mountain Interpretive Center, a world-class museum dedicated to passing on the Heart Mountain story to future generations. Through photographs, artifacts, oral histories and the interactive exhibits, guests to the Center experience life at Heart Mountain through the eyes of those Japanese and Japanese Americans that were confined here during WWII.

Truly breathtaking, Vanda!!! Congratulations! How exciting and well-deserved that your work is reaching an even-wider audience. It would be thrilling to see this painting in person.
