BIG SKY – Outlaw Partners is pleased to announce that tickets for the 2018 Big Sky PBR event will go on sale March 1 at 9 a.m. mountain time. Fans of the Big Sky PBR should mark their calendars—this event will sell out quickly.
The on-sale date has been moved up from June 1 in an effort to allow out-of-town attendees more time to make travel arrangements, and to give Big Sky locals more advanced notice to purchase tickets.
“Each year the event draws more attention and the demand for tickets is increasing—last year the event sold out in 24 hours,” said Eric Ladd, CEO of Outlaw Partners, the company that produces the Big Sky PBR and publishes EBS. “The earlier on-sale date allows for more advanced planning for our guests who travel from around the country for this event.”
This year’s bull riding events will take place on Friday, July 27, and Saturday, July 28. There is no ticket cost for children under 2 years old. Skyboxes that can hold 25 people are also available—call Outlaw Partners at (406) 995-2055 for pricing and more information.
Deemed “Big Sky’s Biggest Week,” the PBR events will kick off with a community dance in Big Sky Town Center on Wednesday, July 25. The third annual Big Sky Art Auction will take place in the PBR Arena tent on Thursday, July 26.
In 2017, the professional bull riders voted the Big Sky PBR “Event of the Year” for the fifth year in a row. Members from the Outlaw Partners team attended the PBR World Finals in Las Vegas to accept the award.

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.
