Indian
Boy at Crow Fair
James Bama
Crow Fair, held every summer, comprises the largest annual gathering of
North American Indians. It lasts for five days and is attended by some
ten thousand Indians who set up a thousand tepees. There are parades,
rodeo events and horseracing. Drumming and dancing continue far into the
early morning hours.
This boy was one
of four Arapaho brothers from the Wind River reservation who danced at
the fair. His distinctive costume and face paint represent his personal
creativity and individual style.

Red,
White and Blue
Alan Bean
"The space program represents what is truly great with America,"
says artist Alan Bean. "When I was an astronaut I felt each day that
I had accepted a responsibility to do the right thing professionally in
everything that I did. I was not alone in this as I saw this 'right stuff'
code everywhere. It was a good feeling to know that all those around me
were dedicated to making our nation's space exploration effort as good
as it could possibly be. This red, white and blue feeling and theme carried
over into everything we did. If everyone at NASA cut ourselves I believe
we would all bleed red, white and blue."

Witch
of the Wave
Christopher Blossom
The discovery of gold in California in 1848 had a dramatic impact on this
country and the rest of the world. In the shipping industry, for example,
speed and capacity became even more important for shipping goods to the
booming city of San Francisco. It was during this time, at the height
of the clipper ship era, that George Raynes built the Witch of the Wave
at Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
Built primarily for Far East trade, a typical voyage took her from the
East Coast to California, and then around the world. Although she was
a clipper ship, Witch of the Wave was not designed for extreme speed,
but rather to accommodate a large amount of cargo. After her fourth voyage
in 1854, she was chartered by and later sold to Dutch interests, who renamed
her Electra.
"I like to find a way to show a ship in a slightly different way
than the typical full-sail, sunny day picture," says Chris Blossom,
"and here I show her under shortened sail in fairly blustery conditions,
as the sun begins to set."

where just a handful of tierra bendita ("sacred earth") is said
to cure the sick and heal the lame. Braldt Bralds' winsome Chihuahua

Wet
Way, Washington's Choice
John Buxton
In 1755, George Washington acted as an aide de camp to British
General Edward Braddock as the British attempted to retake the Ohio Country
from the French. Although the expedition itself ended in disaster for
the British and colonial forces, the campaign provided an opportunity
for the young Washington to distinguish himself in battle. Three years
later, when Scottish general John Forbes began to plan his own campaign
to take Fort Duquesne, he called upon Washington for assistance. Washington
suggested they attack via a southerly route, but Forbes insisted on developing
a new passage inland instead. Fortunately, Forbes had made the right decision
and successfully eradicated the French. Washington's Scout
depicts an officer and two of his men investigating a possible route for
what would become Forbes' road.

Resistance
Training
James C. Christensen
Although the relationship between the quartet of tough-looking fish and
the determined cyclist in Resistance Training may at first
be unclear, the title offers some explanation: athletes often train against
a resisting force to build their strength. In this particular case, however,
as the fish tug stubbornly in the other direction, we must wonder-who
is training whom?

Wait'n
fer Them to Mother-Up,
... and Bed Down
Bob Coronato
Today, just as in the past, after calves are
branded, theyre taken to a summer pasture. The cows and their calves
become separated in the drive and anyone who has moved large numbers of
cows knows that one thing is for sureits loud. One by one
the cows quiet down and mother-up, wandering off in pairs.
After
a long day of moving cows, you can feel your body starting to creak. As
the day begins to cool off, you and your horse just sit there. This was
always an introspective time for me, sitting on my horse, waiting. You
have time to look around and think. As the cows pair up it gets quieter
and quieter, until there is just silence.

The
Gunfighter
Don Crowley
As the gunfighter squints into the distance we get a glimpse into the
harsh life of a denizen of the Old West. Hardened and wary, The
Gunfighter represents the wild frontiers of our nation in a time
when the only law was survival and the only policeman a gun.

Autumn
in Little River
Don Demers
Every autumn, Don Demers and a group of his friends (including artist
Chris Blossom) meet in East Boothbay, Maine, to enjoy the tranquility
of the coastal town. "The clean and low light is distinct from summer
light," says Demers. "It's great for painting." Standing
on the banks of an offshoot of the Damariscotta River, the artist painted
this tranquil New England scene.

Silk
Snapper
Flick Ford
"Being new to snapper and reef fish in general, I thought I had found
a red snapper to paint when this large silk snapper was landed,"
said the artist. "The guide and owner of Fat Fish Adventures (and
the most skilled hand-liner I know), Peter Jervis, called it a 'red silky.'
The confusion was mine. The bright yellow eyes distinguish the silk snapper
from the red-eyed red snapper. There is a lot of deceptive nomenclature
surrounding red snappers. A study by the University of North Carolina
found that seventy out of twenty-two fish sold as red snapper were actually
some other kind of fish."

Upward Mobility resembles an ancient Chinese scroll.

To
Touch a Heart
Steve Hanks
As the sunlight caresses her skin, the rapt subject of Steve Hanks' striking
new portrait To Touch a Heart is carried away by the tide
of her emotion. The dramatic light and posture exquisitely captures this
singular private moment. "The nudes are basically the foundation
of everything I paint," says the artist. "I return to paint
nudes to sharpen up my ability to paint the figure."

Stayin'
Alive
Judy Larson
"Survival of the close-knit pack is usually the most important item
on the wolf agenda," says artist Judy Larson, "but for Alaskan
wolves, just staying alive has become a full time job. State-sanctioned
aerial gunning has taken the lives of more than 600 wolves, and hunting
by snowmobiles has increased. In Idaho and Wyoming, state officials are
determined to annihilate wolves that wander outside of national parks.
Wolves are fighting to stay alive. Only we can help them."

The
Terrible Twos
Bonnie Marris
I did all the right things! I picked a fabulous
stallion with a great disposition to be her sire and I read all the books.
In May, we delivered a beautiful little filly. I worked with her every
day, teaching her leading, bathing, grooming, tying and not to kick or
nip. She was the perfect foal
. Then, one morning, I woke up to the
terrible twos. Suddenly she argued! She threw tantrums! She
bucked, she ran, she whinnied for me to leave, then not to leave. She
threw her brushes, dumped her grain, splashed water on me, stomped her
feet, and shook her head. Was it my fault? Not enough teaching? Too much?
Shes
three now. Whew
shes perfect again!

Guardians
of the Waters
Frank C. McCarthy
The desert lands of the southwestern United States contain a multitude
of mysteries and artifacts of earlier peoples. The images carved into
the rock face in Guardians of the Waters did, at one time,
have specific meaning, but experts today do not agree on their precise
translation. McCarthy's dynamic portrait of a band of warriors racing
past a group of symbols illustrates the grand scale and intriguing style
of some of these petroglyphs. Perhaps these warriors know their true meaning.

Birdcage
Emily McPhie
Emily McPhie's portraits of women and children offer a window into her
artistic education. The solemn, sweet little girl in Birdcage,
for example, would look perfectly at home with a collection of early American
paintings. "Birds often represent the soul or spirit in my paintings,"
says the artist. The birdcage itself is empty, but if we look closely
we can find the bird printed on the little girl's dress-has her soul broken
free just as the bird? Birdcage invites us to look deeper
into our own hearts and imaginations to find the answer.

Dawn
of the Liberators
William S. Phillips
Dawn of the Liberators was created as a tribute to the aviators
whose bravery contributed to the Allied victory in World War II. The painting
was commissioned as a memorial to artist Howard Terpning's brother, First
Lieutenant John E. Terpning, who paid the ultimate price to secure American
freedom. First Lieutenant Terpning was a pilot in the crew of B-24D Bomber
42-20525, which was lost over New Guinea on May 7, 1944.
As they fly into formation on the way to their targets, two B-24s of the
43rd Bomb Group's 64th Squadron climb into a Pacific dawn. Although they
were historically eclipsed in number by their European counterparts, the
B-24 Squadrons of the Asiatic-Pacific theater fought a relentless and
determined enemy in an unforgiving environment to ensure safety for the
Allied nations.

Wa
Girl
Mian Situ
The Yunnan Province of southwest China is a mountainous and remote region
that is home to 26 separate tribes including the Wa. The isolation of
the province has protected the Wa from the incursion of modern influences
that have overcome so much of China. Many of the tribal traditions and
ways have survived to this day.
Most of artist Mian Situ's depictions of rural life in China focus on
this region, and while it may be an unfamiliar world with unfamiliar customs,
the emotions and dreams of the people in his paintings are universal

Mountain
Sentinel
Daniel Smith
Humans have long been fascinated by the mystery of the raven. Throughout
Europe, Asia and North America, early peoples told stories of raven gods
and their deeds. This raven sits alone on a gnarled branch, staring vigilantly
into the mountain mist. His eyes scan the sky, watching for predator,
prey or anything in between. Like all of Daniel Smith's realistic wildlife
scenes, Mountain Sentinel places the viewer instantly in the wilderness
habitat of his subject.

Sign
Along the Trail
Howard Terpning
The Native Americans had a multitude of ways to communicate with other
members of their tribes. The Cherokee would bend a small sapling nearly
to the ground, using the now-crooked tree to indicate a direction. Some
of these crooked trees can still be seen today. Other trail-marking methods
included piling stones or branches to create what are known today as cairns.
If a trail was devoid of natural debris, a traveler might leave a personal
item along the trail to attract attention and direct those who would follow.
The horseman in this scene has found the marker left by his predecessor,
confirming that he is on the right track.

of the puppy," says Weiss, "not to make something cute-because
it's cute enough already. You don't have to add to something that beautiful."

are so confident in handling them. I didn't have that farm upbringing,
so when a four-year-old girl grabbed a chicken and hugged it wildly right

the chicken broke free-only to be quickly wrangled again by her little
blonde friend. I love to capture moments of joy like the one I saw on
