About the artist: Andy Skaff love of the West provides the inspiration for his light- filled, vibrant landscapes. By painting outdoors in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and throughout the West, he has developed an appreciation for the color and beauty of the western landscape. His paintings convey the clear sense of strong color and deep contrasts, which he sees in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and high deserts of New Mexico and Arizona. Andy works in oils in the Plein Air tradition. He began college as an art major at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Although he enjoyed a successful law practice, Andy never lost interest in painting and collecting art. After 34 years, he decided to pursue his passion on a full-time basis. He has studied extensively with painter Kevin Macpherson. Andy also enjoys the encouragement and moral support of his wife, two daughters and son-in-law. Andy is a member of the Oil Painters of America, the California Art Club, and the North Tahoe Arts Association. He is also a volunteer fireman at Lake Tahoe's Meeks Bay Fire District.

Image size: 27.25"H x 28.38"W Nancy Patricia Coe (American, 1932-1998), was born in San Jose, California to Henry Surtcliff Coe and spent most of her life on Rancho San Felipe in a two-story, brick colonial residence, originally built by her father, on a commercial cattle ranch. With its weeping willow trees and picturesque red barn, it made for a happy home nestled in the heart of San Felipe Valley. Henry Coe State Park is named after her Grandfather Henry Willard Coe.

Her works, including landscapes and portraits, have been featured in numerous newspaper articles in the Reno Gazette-Journal.
