Nevada Wild Art Exhibit
February 18, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Presented by
Northeastern Nevada Artists and Friends
Tribute to the 38th National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, NV.
Landscape capturing the essence of Nevada is defined by our diverse geography. Millions of acres of uninhabited space inspire our imagination. From the Mojave Desert, North to the Great Basin Sage-Stepps, tall mountain peaks and long desert valleys characterize our state. What do you think influences the work of our artists? Scientific analysis of facts, debate regarding water rights, mineral rights, range health, development and land use? Or, beauty of nature and wildlife? Each artist must find the ultimate answer within themselves. Our task, as artists is to thoughtfully interpret and capture the essence of millions of miles within a frame. To communicate the great silence of the deserts, unbroken horizons, star filled skies, animals and cultures. The features unique to the great Nevada wilderness.
