Never beforehave these paintings been displayed on a scale like this and it's quite likely that they'll never be seen like this again.And, if you happened to miss the Westward Look Sunday Evening Program, these four artists will be on hand tochat with you and answer any questions you may have.
Gathering these paintings has been a MONUMENTAL task as tracking down some of these paintings has been an exercise in detective sleuthing. Owners and collectors of these fantastic paintings have all banded together to bring you themost complete and impressive collection offine mineral paintings that Tucson, and quite possibly the world, has ever seen.This is history in the making so be a part of history by visiting the Mineral Artists' Show at the 2010 Tucson show.
