The fourth and final Artists in Residence (AIR) of 2024, Lindsey Winslow, will be here September 23rd – October 7th. “I'm excited about my artist residency at Bighorn Canyon because it offers an incredible opportunity to disconnect from the hustle of everyday life. I am looking forward to the beautiful landscapes, hiking trails, and abundant wildlife,” said Lindsey when asked about what she was most excited for during her upcoming residency.

Lindsey grew up in a rural farming community in southeast Michigan. Spending most of her childhood outside helped develop a passion for animals and art.

She now works as a biochemist, researching at a company that makes medicine for farm animals, improving their quality of life, and making farming more sustainable. But she has continued to spend large amounts of time drawing and painting and finding inspiration for that artwork through hiking and photography. She photographs animals, plants, and landscapes, but birds are her favorite subject. The pictures are then used to inspire her paintings.

Join Lindsey for one or both of the following programs:

Guided Bird Walk (October 5th at Lockhart Ranch @ 9:00am) – Join AIR Lindsey for a birding excursion at the Lockhart Ranch. Enjoy the scenery, spot wildlife, and learn some tips and tools for bird identification. Great for the beginner birders and experts alike!

Printmaking Workshop (October 5th at Bighorn Canyon Visitor Center @ 2:00pm) – Learn Gyotaku, a Japanese form of printmaking, and other printmaking skills with AIR Lindsey at the visitor center. Use molds of local species to make beautiful artwork with this user-friendly artform.

All AIR activities are free and open to all ages and abilities. Bighorn Canyon hopes you can join us for one or more of these programs. If you have questions call the Bighorn Canyon Visitor Center at 307-548-5406.
