What has your experience been with the increased traffic in the Gallatin Canyon and Big Sky?
Erika Jennings, Big Sky, Montana
Interior Designer and Owner of Carole Sisson Designs
“I try to avoid the trip into town because of the traffic. It doesn’t affect me that much because I don’t leave Big Sky that often, this community has so much of what we need. I do get frustrated with the etiquette in the canyon, people going too fast or too slow and not pulling over.”
Autumn Marshall, Big Sky, Montana
Raft Guide at Geyser Whitewater Expeditions
“I feel like its worse in the summer. With construction, it seems worse every year. It makes it harder to commute to and from Bozeman.”

Event Details
We all are familiar with using a limited palette, but do you use one? Do you know how to use a limited palette to create different color combinations? Are you tired of carrying around 15-20 different tubes when you paint plein air? Have you ever wanted to create a certain “mood” in a painting but failed? Do you create a lot of mud? Do you struggle to achieve color harmony? All these problems are addressed in John’s workbook in clear and concise language!
Based on the bestselling “Limited Palatte, Unlimited Color” workbook written by John Pototschnik, the workshop is run by Maggie Shane and Annie McCoy, accomplished landscape (acrylic) and plein air (oil) artists,exhibitors at the Big Sky Artists’ Studio & Gallery and members of the Big Sky Artists Collective.
Each student will receive a copy of “Limited Palette, Unlimited Color” to keep and take home to continue your limited palette journey. We will show you how to use the color wheel and mix your own clean mixtures to successfully create a mood for your paintings.
Each day, we will create a different limited palette color chart and paint a version of a simple landscape using John’s directives. You will then be able to go home and paint more schemes using the book for guidance.
Workshop is open to painters (oil or acrylic) of any level although students must have some basic knowledge of the medium he or she uses. Students will be provided the book ($92 value), color wheel, value scale and canvas papers to complete the daily exercises.
