Outlaw PartnersUrban legend has it that top endurance athletes were replacing their sponsor’s hydration mix with Skratch Labs. I can believe it. As a runner, keeping myself hydrated and having enough electrolytes has always been a challenge. I’ve tried everything from Gatorade to honey water in search of hydration that’s in line with my healthy eating habits.
Skratch Labs has a short list of ingredients including real fruit, and this electrolyte replacement mix not only works, it makes me feel good about putting it in my body.
Added benefit- it tastes good! – K.M.
Having the right socks for running is a necessity. Socks that don’t breathe or have enough cushion, or that hold moisture, can lead to blisters, hot spots, or soggy feet.
The Smartwool PHD Run Light Micro socks find the sweet spot. The super-soft merino wool is a natural fiber that breathes and wicks; it’s comfortable like cotton, but performs like synthetics. Cushion just where you need it, and shaped, seamless contours mean your feet can go the extra mile. Or two.

My 5-year-old niece was with me when I slipped on the Ghosts for the first time and she stated, matter-of-factly, “Those new shoes make you run really fast.”
Of course, every child knows that shoes with neon yellow, reflective patches, and a lion on the insole will make you faster, but after running in them, I discovered a few other secrets to their performance.
They’re light and stable – a rare combination in a trail shoe that’s achieved by a light upper and a solid Vibram sole. The fit is easy to dial in, from the extra shoelace eyeholes to the heel cup that locks my foot in place. They grip well on uphills and feel secure running down technical descents – perfect for my Big Sky training ground. –K.M.

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.
Sundays, April 14, 21 and 28, 2024
Noon until 6PM.
