Lost in the Woods
What do you get when you turn three landscape painters loose in the Black Hills? In this case, three women lost in the woods. The artwork here represents the adventures of Sandy Newman, Jan Sohl and Dorothy Snowden as they explore the nooks and crannies of the hills. The images were created on location or are studio pieces inspired by field sketches. In the course of discovering new places, these local ladies enjoyed a variety of back roads, constantly changing weather and were often going the wrong direction. But we think you'll appreciate the results of their efforts.
Tennessee native Dorothy Snowden discovered the beauty of the West while breaking horses and working on a cattle operation near the base of Wolf Creek Pass, Colorado. On a vacation to South Dakota, she learned of Black Hills State University, where she graduated with a degree in Art and Photography. Her original oils, acrylics and pastels depict horses and rural landscapes. These colorful images have appeared in publications, collections and commercial applications. When she is not in the studio, Dorothy works with off-track Thoroughbreds, rehabilitating them for pleasure riding. She is a Founding Member of Artists of the Black Hills.
Jan Sohl is forever becoming a landscape painter. She loves painting the stories told by our sweeping skies and magnificent landforms. Her work is shown at Prairie Edge Trading Company, galleries in downtown Rapid City, and The Art Nest Gallery in Spearfish, SD.
Painting has become a very spiritual experience for Sandra Newman. It’s always nice when she can translate what she is seeing and feeling to a canvas. If the viewer can identify with what she’s done, that’s an added bonus. To quote Eugene Delacroix: “A picture is nothing but a bridge between the soul of an artist and that of the Spectator.”
