Lilie's Gardens

The day was beautiful and the gardens full of possibility as the artists set off to work. Drawing, painting and just enjoying the sunshine was a great success for the morning. Enjoy the pictures -

























































































The next paintout will be:
Aug.26th - Mallard's Rest.
This is a public access spot on the Yellowstone River. There is a wonderful bend in the river here and of course views all around.

Directions: Take I-90 to Livingston and exit at # 333. Turn left at light onto Hwy.89 and stay on 89 for 10 mi. The sign for Mallard's rest is on the right, but turn left and proceed down the hill to the river.

Nancy Johnson's Gardens

Nancy Johnson was hostess for the paint out on this past Tuesday. The day was beautiful, and even more so when you stayed in the shade, which most of us did. About a dozen artist arrived and got right to work, picking the best of the flowers that were not ravaged by the hail. A few did more distant views of the gardens or combined elements to make their own beautiful scene. Thanks Nancy for opening your lovely home to us.






































































































The next paint out is -
Aug.12th - Lillie's Garden/ Laurie Blue
This is a terrific place with tons of flowers, dried arrangements, other unique structures, and the best place to buy gifts for "yourself"

Directions: From the light at Four Corners head south ( toward Big Sky) for 1 mile. Turn right at Lillie’s 2nd sign (about 600 ft. south of Bozeman Hot Springs.) After about 100 ft. turn right into their parking area….but DO NOT PARK THERE. The gate will be open, so continue on past the house and shop to the larger parking area in the back where the barn is.
