The last few months have been busy for Shawn Cameron. In December 2014 Western Art Collector Magazine selected the painting "In the Midst" for their Cover. In March, Arizona Governor Doug Ducey personally selected her painting, “Hilltop Passage” as his top choice thus earning the coveted Governor’s Choice Award at the 10th Anniversary Cowgirl Up! Art from the Other Side of the West. The show is held annually at the Desert Caballeros Museum in Wickenburg, Arizona. In April, American Cowboy Magazine published a special issue focusing on The Cowboy Code. Cameron's painting, “Song of the West” was selected for the cover. Congratulations Shawn!!!
We are excited to announce that Trailside Galleries artist Shawn Cameron's painting "In the Midst" graced the cover of Western Art Collector Magazine's December 2014 issue.
Deck the Walls: Holiday Miniature Show
Featured in Western Art Collector
December 2014
Holiday MiniatureTrailside Galleries is bringing the works of more than two dozen artists together for its annual Deck the Walls - Holiday Miniature Show, the highlight of which is a fixed-price sale by drawing held December 4th at the gallery’s Scottsdale, Arizona, location.
The exhibition begins December 1 and runs through Decem ber 28. Among the artists participating are Cyrus Afsary, Jeremy Browne, Shawn Cameron, Bruce Cheever, John DeMott, Patricia Dobson, Robert Duncan, Z.S. Liang, Dan and Danny McCaw, Michael Godfrey, Joann Peralta, Tim Solliday, Ian amsay, Cynthia Rigden, Sueellen Ross, Tim Solliday, Mian Situ, Matt Smith, Dustin Van Wechel, Curt Walters, Morgan Weistling, William Whitaker, and Jie Wei Zhou.
Situ’s work in the exhibition is a mother and daughter piece titled Pretty in Pink. “The mother and child in the painting are Wa people from Yunnan Province in southwest China,” Situ says of the piece. “Mothers always carry their children either when they are doing their routine chores or going to the market.” Godfrey’s piece is a floral image—like Situ’s, it also features pink—titled A Gift from April. “Springtime in Maryland is highlighted by cherry blossom trees. I have observed their beauty for years but it wasn’t until two years ago that I considered them as subject matter for my paintings,” Godfrey says. “I have done a series of up close vignettes as I am drawn to the abstractions that are created by the blossoms.”
The show will also include landscapes, cowboy images, still lifes, portraits, marine and seascapes, and a number of figurative pieces.
