With her distinctive style, Michelle Condrat wowed collectors during the 2016 Grand Canyon Celebration of Art, shattering sales records at the Quick Draw

and ending the exhibit as the top seller. Michelle will be back at the canyon

again this year with her fresh contemporary vision and visual perception of the western landscape.

The 9th annual Grand Canyon Celebration of Art will feature 25 artists painting

plein air at the Grand Canyon September 9-16, 2017, with an exhibit and sale of their work opening at Kolb Studio on the South Rim on September 17. The exhibit and sale will be open daily through January 15, 2018.

Each of the participating artists creates a studio painting for the exhibit, which hang in the exhibit along with the plein air work they paint during the event.

Of her studio painting this year, “A Canyon of Colors,” Condrat notes “My goal was to capture a snapshot of the subtle color changes from the highlights and shadows to the reflections upon the water, for these colors can change so fast and dramatically from one second to the next.”
