The Sonoran Plein Air Painters invites all eligible Artist and Signature level members to participate in the upcoming show at

Amerind Gallery

Amerind Museum 2100 N Amerind Rd., Dragoon, 85609

Dedicated to archaeology, Native cultures and Western art, the Amerind Museum is surrounded by the spectacular boulders of Texas Canyon in Dragoon, AZ.

Entries will be juried by award-winning watercolorist Tracy Lynn Ross, who is a Signature Member of the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies, and has achieved Saguaro status with the Southern Arizona Watercolor Guild.

Carrying forward a spirit of curiosity as a lifelong learner, Tracy Lynn continues to embrace new media and techniques from traditional Japanese painting to oils and watercolor. Tracy’s fluid brushwork and layered luminosity define her distinctive style in her primary medium of watercolor.
