BIG SANDY – The Lone Peak High School Big Horns ended their football season Oct. 26 with a 39-8 playoff loss to the Big Sandy Pioneers (8-1).
The Big Horns (4-5) wrapped up their second season of Class C-six man facing one of the best teams in the Eastern Division. The Big Horns scored first with a rushing touchdown by Tucker Shea early in the first quarter, and the half time score was 18-8.
A number of parents, students and fans traveled from Big Sky to cheer for the Big Horns on a cold and windy evening. It appeared LPHS had a chance to keep the game close, until the Pioneers broke it open in the third quarter, reeling off another 21 unanswered points.
In just their second season of competition, the Big Horns showed improvement over last year’s playoff appearance, an 87-0 to Denton.
Making history again, Shea, who scored the first touchdown in Big Horns history on Sept. 3, 2011, scored the final touchdown of this season. It was also Shea’s last as a Big Horn – he graduates in the spring. The LPHS will graduate four other seniors as well.
Among the Big Horns’ 2012 season highlights was a 94-0 victory over Two Eagle River on Sept. 8, and wins against St. Regis (49-0) and West Yellowstone (55-33). The most exciting game of the season was against Lima, which the Big Horns won 41-36. Six-man football does not lend itself to low-scoring games, and the Big Horns lost big a couple of times, against Alberton (70-32) and Billings Christian (79-32).
For next season, the Big Horns expect 10 returning players, as well as coach Tony Beardsley and his staff.

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.

Noon until 6PM.
