Trailside Galleries keeps their artists busy! Throughout the month of February the gallery’s annual New Horizons landscape show illuminates downtown’s East Broadway.
Highlighted in the exhibit is contemporary landscape painter Robert Moore, a very popular artist. His canvas sizes run the gamut–they can be almost monumental in scale, but he also creates paintings in sizes appropriate for any space. Result: lots to choose from!
Moore’s paint application suggests a palette knife; brushstrokes have a slicing quality. Moore’s colors are vibrant–he’s flexible here, too. Landscapes are warm, cool, and everything in between. Baskets of color, flying confetti, piling up—Moore’s own painterly parade.  He’s a painter for all seasons, an “American Impressionist.”  Hailing from Idaho, Moore has been painting for 25 years; this show is slated to include at least 10 new works.
Other artists featured in February’s show are:Â Bruce Cheever, Brent Cotton, Michael Godfrey, Lanny Grant, Francois Koch, Calvin Liang, Grant MacDonald, Dan McCaw, Danny McCaw, Greg McHuron, Robert Moore, Scott Myers, Ralph Oberg, Andrew Peters, Bill Sawczuk, Curt Walters and Kathy Wipfler.

Trailside Galleries Home for the Holidays Miniature Show presents a Santa-sized bag full of miniature paintings this December. Beginning December 1, and running through December 31, Trailside’s East Broadway gallery showcases works sized for your stocking by many of its artists.
“Subjects could be the sweeping landscapes of the West or the neighboring wildlife native to North America.  Many genres and mediums will be represented and collectors can be sure to find a wide variety of fabulous miniature paintings—perfect for the holiday season,” says Trailside’s Cara Kelly.
The gallery hopes this selection of small painting “jewels” will speak to our love of
the region’s special beauty, its sense of home and the pleasures of being surrounded by family and friends. The holidays are also a time for transformation and receiving nature’s oft intangible messages of hope, nourishment and love, as well as awareness of all that sustains us.
Trailside Galleries will be open every day during December, with the exception of Christmas and New Year’s. For information, contact Cara Kelly at cara@trailsidegalleries.com.
It’s here! Can you believe it?  I can’t.  Here we go…Fall Arts Festival starts NOW.
Trailside Galleries’ September line-up is remarkable.  September 1-20th, its annual “Fall Gold” spectacular will showcase an almost impossibly extensive selection of wildlife, cowboy, landscape and other manner of Western art.  The show will be up most of the month; “Fall Gold’s” opening reception happens Saturday, September 19, 3-6:00 p.m. Many Trailside artists will be in attendance, and the list of artists represented in this year’s show is:
Cyrus Afsary, Bill Anton, Wayne Baize, Gerald Balciar, Bruce Cheever, Brent Cotton, Pino Dangelico, Stan Davis, John DeMott, Andrew Denman, Michael Desatnick, Robert Duncan, Nancy Glazier, Michael Godfrey, Veryl Goodnight, Lanny Grant, George Hallmark, Matthew Hillier, Terry Isaac, Joffa Kerr, Francois Koch, Calvin Liang, Z.S.

Trailside shines a special light on new works by wildlife artists Kyle Sims, Bonnie Marris (she has a gift for portraying grizzlies–check out the work over Emma’s desk, upstairs at J.H. Auction headquarters), Lindsay Scott, Dan Smith and Adam Smith. Each artist will have their own showcase; an artists’ reception will be held for these artists at Trailside on Saturday, September 19th.
If that isn’t enough, Western art legends Mian Situ and Richard D. Thomas will
have their own showcases too.
How does Trailside pull all this off? With a remarkably energetic, devoted staff and two floors of gallery space, which, if you haven’t seen it, is impressive.
Trailside Galleries partners with the Gerald Peters Gallery for the 2009 Jackson Hole Art Auction, taking place September 19 at the Jackson Hole Center for the Arts.

Robert Moore
Every time I’ve taken a Jackson Hole Art Tours client to Trailside, Moore’s
singularly romantic, rich canvases command attention. Moore’s thick use of paint, his ability to move from warm to cool palettes and back again, his composition and lively landscapes fit a variety of tastes. Canvases are often large, but there’s a price point for everyone. Born and raised in the Snake River Valley of Idaho, Moore is a 20-year Trailside veteran, widely collected.
Lanny Grant
Landscape painter Lanny Grant, noted for his mountain vistas, also paints more intimate scenes, such as a sun-drenched hillside blanketed in flowering sage. A native of the Colorado Rocky Mountain region, Grant’s passion for these western ranges never wanes.
Up to 10 new works by Grant will be on display. The artist was recently asked to be Artist-In-Residence at Rocky Mountain National Park for the 2009 summer season.

Irving Couse, John Clymer, Bob Kuhn, Carl Rungius and more.  William Acheff, Clyde Aspevig, Robert Bateman–recently the subject of a special retrospective at the National Museum of Wildlife Art–Z.S. Liang, Mian Situ, Howard Terpning and more.
According to press releases, last year’s auction fetched 7.7 million. The auction is currently soliciting consignments for this year’s auction.  Preview works already consigned upstairs at Trailside Galleries, 130 East Broadway.
