Thanks WITH OUR

With your support, the Jon Crane Children’s Home Society Benefit Auction raised more than $768,000 in the first 15 years. Proceeds from the 2022 auction benefit Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center (CAC) Endowment. THANK YOU Jon and Gail Crane, Denny McKay and Adam Karrels, artists, sponsors, donors, guests, planning committee, volunteers and Arrowhead staff.

Your generosity means hundreds of children in the Black Hills have the opportunity to begin healing from the trauma of sexual abuse, physical abuse and/or neglect.

(See page 4 for more information and statistics for CAC.) Our hope is that your time with us is enjoyable and meaningful, and you leave this evening understanding the tremendous difference you’ve made in the lives of children and families served by Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center in the Black Hills.

Thank you again for your support of Children’s Home Society and this important work!

Child Advocacy Center The Child Advocacy Center (CAC) serves children who are alleged victims of sexual abuse, physical abuse or who have witnessed violence. Like more than 900 other CACs nationwide, the Children’s Home CAC provides forensic interviews, support to families and coordinates specialized medical examinations.

These services eliminate the need for repeated interviews and examinations by multiple investigating parties.

Referrals come primarily through law enforcement and Child Protection Services.

SHARING THE SECRET Imagine that you are a 10-year-old girl. You are being sexually abused by a family friend. It’s a secret—because the “friend” has threatened you.

You keep pushing it out of your mind. But one day, when you’re playing with one of your own friends, the secret slips out.

To your surprise, your friend tells you that the same thing happened to her a few years ago! She says she told an adult and was interviewed at the Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center (CAC). Most important, the abuse stopped.

Your friend says that telling an adult is the right thing to do. She even offers to go with you to share with your mother what has been happening. It’s hard to tell your mom, but having your friend there helps. Your mom is shocked and alarmed. But she believes you. And she thanks your friend for helping you come forward.

Since your friend’s mom has already been through the process, she helps your mom make a report to law enforcement. Next you have a forensic interview at CAC. An advocate supports your mom for several months, helping her with protection orders, counseling, support groups and more. Your friend is also forensically interviewed as a witness. She provides additional information that strengthens the case.

The abuse stops immediately, as your friend and your mom promised it would, and your family works to help you heal.

CAC often receives referrals of this sort, which are called “accidental disclosures.” This means the 10-year-old child didn’t necessarily tell her friend because she thought the friend would make the abuse stop—she was just sharing with her friend, which is what friends do.

The abuse could potentially still be happening to the 10-year-old if her friend hadn’t been brave enough to disclose her own experience and to encourage the 10-year-old to do the right thing. This friend knew that after she told an adult about her abuse, she was supported and connected to healing services.

The trickle-down effect was one of the silver linings as the abuse stopped for the 10-year-old, and she is now safe from her abuser. She is making progress in her healing and the offender is being held accountable because of these two courageous girls.

16 YEARS OF DEDICATION With a vision of supporting local charities, for many years Jon and Gail Crane hosted painting demonstrations in Jon’s Hill City Gallery. At the end of each demonstration, the newly created piece would be auctioned with proceeds benefiting a different charity each year. In 2007, Jon and Gail chose Children’s Home Society (CHS) as the recipient. Denny McKay, long-time auctioneer for the demonstration events, had always held CHS in high regard as one of his personal favorite charities. He proposed broadening the event by bringing in additional artists, with the idea to both increase the proceeds to benefit CHS and to create greater awareness of the CHS mission. The Cranes eagerly agreed, and the Jon Crane Benefit Auction for Children’s Home Society was born.

DENNY MCKAY

EVENT AUCTIONEER

Denny McKay has served as the event auctioneer with his ability to make people laugh, enjoy themselves, and see the true meaning behind the event each year. Many talented artists have donated both artwork and time.

The tireless efforts of volunteers make the auction successful. Community participation continues to grow, and many guests have attended year after year to support the needs of the children at CHS.

Artist Jon Crane

Event Founder

RICHARD DUBOIS

DREAM TEAM CREATOR

Richard’s influence continued to expand the event by the inclusion of his adult students known as Dick’s Chicks in the auction. After Richard’s untimely passing in 2014, Dick’s Chicks have honored his legacy by continuing to support the event with their art, energy and enthusiasm. Again this year Dick’s Chicks will host a Dream Team experience for children at Black Hills Children’s Home. Through this group of talented women, we are reminded of Richard’s great talent, generosity and compelling wit.

DICK’S CHICKS: THE ARTISTIC JOURNEY CONTINUES Dick’s Chicks is a group of 12 women who took weekly classes from the well-known watercolor artist, Richard DuBois. The group began painting with Richard in 2007 at a workshop he taught in Custer. After the workshop ended, Richard agreed to continue with the classes for a short time. That “short time” turned into regular art sessions until Richard’s death in 2014.

Originally, the Dick’s Chicks group consisted of five women but grew Richard DuBois (1941-2014) DICK’S CHICKS: Back row, left to right: Sherry Thurston, Melissa Wood, Ginny to 12 over the years. The ladies Reinicke, Joanne Nelson, Gwen Ray, Nora Wosepka, Beth Lytle and Mary Scull.

Professor of Art 1964-2014 treasure pleasurable memories of Front row, left to right: Kathie Hart, Kathy Benson, Rose DuBois (not pictured: Jill Arbeiter) Professional Watercolor Artist the 1,200 fun and engaging hours learning from Richard. He was a mentor, an advocate and a friend. The group dubbed themselves Dick’s Chicks out of reverence for Richard. After Richard’s passing, the Chicks have continued helping each other in the artistic journey that began with Richard.

The Dream Team Program was the brain-child of Richard and Rose DuBois. They graciously hosted children in their home studio for six years and inspired many budding artists. Dick’s Chicks serve as Dream Team Mentors for kids from Black Hills Children’s Home. They carry on Richard’s mission to create, teach and inspire art.

Richard was a good friend to the children at Black Hills Children’s Home. He never missed an opportunity to host the children in his studio, help them explore their talent and imagination, and treat them to art kits and pizza. Richard brought out the best in those who knew him. His memory will live on through his art and in the art and hearts of all those he touched during his time on this earth.

2022 DREAM TEAM MENTORS

To better connect live auction artists with the mission of Children’s Home Society, the late artist and professor, Richard DuBois, and his wife, Rose DuBois, suggested the idea of the Dream Team. The Dream Team Program allows artists to work with small groups of children living at Black Hills Children’s Home to teach, encourage and mentor the children in creating their own art. Richard and Rose were the first to host the children in their studio. For six years they continued that tradition complete with pizza and art kits for each child!

The Dream Team experience has given CHS children a healthy, positive outlet to deal with their emotions and past trauma while they heal. The children keep their creations, but shown above are some photographs capturing the art created through this opportunity.

gwenrayart@gmail.com (605) 431-9420 I grew up on a ranch on lower Spring Creek Road where my dad homesteaded on the land. My husband, Charley, and I live in the beautiful Black Hills on Boxelder Creek.

At an early age I developed an interest in art. My heart and soul are transformed when I put paint brush to paper. That is why my motto is “Art from the Heart!”

After painting with acrylic for several years, I wanted to try watercolors. That led me to paint with the late Richard DuBois.

How blessed I was to have time with him! That is also how I met many artists who have become my dear friends.

(Dick’s Chicks page 7) Children’s Home is a very special place, and I am grateful to be able to participate in the auction again this year. I love painting with lots of color and my piece this year, Fancy Fox is a fun piece with lots of color! My hope is that Fancy Fox will find the perfect home.

FRAMED 21″ X 17″

joarbeiter@gmail.com (605) 341-6086 As long as I can remember I have had an appreciation of art. Since retiring from my career as a registered nurse, I have been fortunate to have the resources to pursue watercolor painting. I usually strive for juxtapositions in my work, but consider painting an ever-evolving adventure.

I have enjoyed watercolor painting for several years and really appreciate the time I had to learn from Richard DuBois before his passing. (Dick’s Chicks page 7) I belong to a local art studio. My goal with my work is to showcase everyday subjects in a new way. Hopefully, my art helps people see the beauty all around them.

Hisega Hideaway was inspired by an abandoned trailer home in the beautiful Hisega setting. To me it evokes the peace of living simply and in harmony with nature.

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

My name is Moses, but I go by Mos for short. I am an Amish craftsman who lives near Devils Tower in Wyoming. To get the blade’s sharpness, I use a horseshoe rasp and temper and hollow hone the steel. I usually use antlers for the handle and I tool the leather scabbard.

PLEASE NOTE: This year’s knife was still in the process of being created at the time of printing. The photograph in this auction program is of the knife created for the 2021 auction.

Denny and Kim are donating 100% of the sales proceeds to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this knife gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

Joe Pulliam Sunrise Serenity FRAM E D 25″ X 30 ″

Oglalaartist2020@gmail.com (605) 441-9943 Tusweca Gallery 631 Main St • Rapid City, SD 57701 I was born Patrick Joel Pulliam, Oglala Lakota, in Rushville, NE, in 1968. I lived in Pine Ridge until the Bureau of Indian Affairs Relocation Program moved our family to Oakland, CA, and then to Minneapolis, MN. When I was 10, we returned to Pine Ridge.

After graduating from Pine Ridge School, I joined the U.S. Army as an artillery man with the 7th Infantry Division, Fort Ord, CA. In 1989 I deployed to Panama for Operation Just Cause.

After my time in the service, I attended graphic design school at Salt Lake City Community College and Institute of American Indian Arts. After college, I freelanced as a graphic designer and t-shirt artist in Pine Ridge. With my passion for art, I was able to foster many community projects including murals in the schools and throughout communities in Oglala Lakota County.

For 25 years I’ve created the poster and t-shirts for Oglala Nation Fair. In 2016 the National Museum of the American Indian at the Smithsonian purchased five of my original ledger artworks to be featured in their permanent collection. I’ve also won awards at the annual Red Cloud Art Show and Black Hills Powwow. I now own Tusweca Gallery at 631 Main Street in Rapid City.

Sunrise Serenity celebrates and honors the sacred feminine, our wincicala, our young women and the beauty and wisdom of our elders on their sacred earth journey. She wears a red dress in remembrance of all victims of addiction and violence.

This original watercolor is painted on 1906 antique ledger paper from Golden Reward Mining Company.

Sherry Thurston Running Ahead of the Storm FR A MED 21. 5″ X 17. 5″

sherrythurston@ymail.com (605) 430-7976 In between raising my three children, I’ve worked as a watercolor artist for over 15 years. I love the loose, colorful interpretations of landscapes and ordinary places depicted in my art. I studied with a few artists in the northeast but, by far, my greatest mentor and teacher was the late Richard DuBois. Richard’s style was a perfect fit for the loose style I was already using. Although Richard left us way too soon, and I had so much more to learn, he had a huge impact on my art and the purpose behind the art. I’m not only active in the Northern Plains Watercolor Society, but also the Niagara Frontier Watercolor Society in New York State, where I came from. I’m also part of the Dick’s Chicks group (Dick’s Chicks page 7). Artists will always create added value to our world when they come together to share with others.

As an artist, I enjoy an opportunity to make a painting more experiential. It is my hope that the dust coming off the tractor in Running Ahead of the Storm evokes the feel of the wind blowing and the sound of the tractor working its way across the field ahead of the storm promised by the cloudy sky.

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

Shawn DeGroot Prince of the Prairie DI AM E T E R 16″

ddougandshawn@gmail.com 605) 430-9291 A native of South Dakota, I grew up at Wall Lake and now reside in Sioux Falls. After vacationing in the Black Hills for several years, my husband, Doug, and I purchased a home outside of Rapid City.

We lived there for eight years, and that is when I got involved with Children’s Home Society. I recently semi-retired, but still provide healthcare compliance/privacy consulting in South Dakota, Montana, California, Washington and Oregon.

Fused glass is my primary medium, but I also paint with acrylic, watercolor and charcoal. I see an image, draw the image and then apply various techniques layering glass pieces and fusing the glass in a kiln before adding another layer. Sometimes my “mistakes” turn out to be my best creations!

I’ve been a Dream Team Mentor at Black Hills Children’s Home for over a decade. It is gratifying to teach the children and witness a child’s mind opening up to the endless possibilities of their own creativity.

This fused glass piece is wrapped in a wine barrel lid and reminds me that South Dakota is full of geographical and natural wonders.

While a lion is known as “King of the Jungle” and can live in many habitats and ecosystems, bison are herbivores and are primarily found in the grasslands and prairies of North America.

I was inspired to create Prince of the Prairie in honor of the bison that have graced our state with their presence providing food, tools, warmth and much more. If the lion remains the “King of the Jungle,” it is only fitting that bison are considered “Prince of the Prairie.”

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original fused glass piece gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

mikewolforth@me.com facebook.com/mikewolforthphotography (605) 430-7379

My husband, Jim, and I moved to Rapid City in 2005, and that is when I started painting. I enjoy painting landscapes, flowers and different subject matter. Sometimes I enjoy working with bold colors in abstracts or hidden images. I’ve attended workshops to learn different techniques and media. I love to get together with friends to paint, knit and travel. I am part of the Dick’s Chicks group (Dick’s Chicks page 7).

I grew up on farms in eastern SD, where I learned to respect and study wildlife and their habitats. In high school, I lived on a farm surrounded by Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge north of Aberdeen. The Refuge is where I quit hunting with a gun and picked up a camera.

I worked in the glass business and took my camera everywhere I went, photographing the Badlands, Pine Ridge and Rosebud Reservations, Devils Tower and all of the Black Hills. In 1991, I chose to leave the glass business and devote myself to fulltime photography. Photography has taken me to Ecuador, Scotland and Alaska. I was the Rapid City Rush Hockey official photographer for over 10 years. In 2018 I was invited to photograph the HALO for Freedom Project in Dallas-Fort Worth.

I spent five days with 44 Veterans and Wounded Warriors, most of whom were Purple Heart recipients.

This original is a mixed media painting of watercolor and pastel.

I find the hills and valleys around Rapid City fascinating and beautiful. The Hills reminds me of a trip I took with my husband and that stretch of I-90 near Wall, South Dakota.

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

In addition to photography, I do digital imaging to create postcards, brochures, billboards, magazines and books. I have the cover photo and 68 images in America 24/7, South Dakota edition, and produced my own book called Tatanka, Four Seasons of Custer State Park.

GET YOUR LAST SILENT AUCTION BID IN NOW!

By sharing my photography, I hope to teach respect for our natural resources and the importance of wildlife to our well-being.

I took the photo of Cardinal Close Up at the South Dakota Game Fish & Parks Outdoor Campus West on the 50th anniversary of the 1972 Rapid City Flood. He landed very close to me, but only long enough for me to get one single shot.

sstetler@outlook.com (605) 430-4585 I live in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota, and my art career began more than 50 years ago. I studied art at the University of Kansas and Black Hills State University. I am a water media and mixed media artist, and I enjoy color, texture and shape in my artwork.

Tucson is a mixed media abstract done on Yupo paper. I used collage papers from an old map. The colors remind me of Tucson. Texture is the main objective for this painting. Line, color and shape give me joy. Hopefully, it gives others joy as well.

Bonnie Marion 5 O’clock Wine Time FRAM E D 20 ″ X 28″

bjboone31@yahoo.com (605) 341-2063 I was born in California, but moved to the Black Hills in the early 1990s and have grown to love this area. I also love to travel, and I’ve visited many places in the United States and parts of Europe.

I have become an award-winning artist, and I work primarily with watercolor, but I dabble in all mediums. For me, art is not just a passion, but a large part of who I am as a person.

The inspiration for this original watercolor, 5 O’clock Wine Time, came upon me while relaxing after a long day at work. I was admiring a bouquet of lilies and remembering that it is five o’clock somewhere. This painting has many details, texture and a touch of glitz!

Joanne Nelson Howdy Bird

FR A MED 3 2″ X 23 ″

jnelson1874@gmail.com (605) 381-3996 I was raised in the island nation of New Zealand. A love of travel and adventure led to a life on a sailing yacht. Years of travel and exposure to the diverse cultures of the Pacific Rim created the desire to paint the fascinating scenes I witnessed.

The opportunity came years later when I moved to Rapid City with my husband. I had the good fortune to attend a workshop with well-known local artist, Richard DuBois, which evolved into weekly painting sessions. Under Richard’s mentorship, watercolor became my favorite medium. For me painting is a means of expressing the beauty and emotions of a scene and sharing it with others. My artistic direction continues to evolve; while I enjoy detail, my style allows for expression of mood and movement.

I’m intrigued by owls. My husband and I winter in AZ and see a variety of owls. They often roost on our roof and chimney.

Those that roost on the chimney cap are fun as their calls come down the chimney flue and resonate throughout our home. The owl that is most interesting to me and the subject of my painting is the Burrowing Owl. It is a ground-dwelling bird, smaller than a pigeon, with long legs and an expansive face with bright, yellow eyes. They nest in burrows often made by other creatures and hunt insects and small rodents. They can be seen in the daytime standing outside their burrows, head bobbing up and down as if greeting a passerby; hence cowboys named them the Howdy Bird.

Ginny Reinicke Bear Butte Barn F RAM E D 24 ″ X 18″

ginnyart@icloud.com (605) 381-5237 I am a retired art teacher and an active member of the Northern Plains Watercolor Society. Watercolor is my main art medium.

I have won several awards at the annual “Celebration of Light” at the Dahl Fine Arts Center in Rapid City.

Having lived both east river and west river in South Dakota, I am inspired by the natural beauty and the diversity of our state. Old houses and barns are often part of my landscape paintings. Old buildings have so much character and I am curious about who lived there and the stories of their past.

It is an honor to be part of the Jon Crane Children’s Home Society Benefit Auction. It is also very fulfilling to offer painting lessons to the children at Black Hills Children’s Home through the Dick’s Chicks Dream Team experience each year.

(Dick’s Chicks and Dream Team Mentors page 7) For quite some time I had been searching for the location of this barn near Bear Butte. After some research, I drove to the barn this winter and photographed it. It was a cold and clear day, so the colors reflect the icy sky and barren land with a scattering of snow. I hope to return to the location spring, summer and fall to photograph the barn. It will be interesting to paint this scene with the different colors and textures of each season.

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

Donald F. Montileaux All Clear

FR A MED 26 .75″ X 15″

donaldmontileaux.com montileaux48@gmail.com (605) 381-2892 I am Oglala Lakota and a master ledger artist following in the footsteps of my forefathers. I rekindle ledger art with striking images that capture the unique Lakota way of life.

I was born in Pine Ridge and completed my formal art training at the Institute of American Indian Art in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

I interned under noted artist, Oscar Howe, at the University of South Dakota in Vermillion, and the late Herman Red Elk was a close personal friend and mentor.

I continue to refine my skills and participate in many local art shows as well as prestigious art shows nationally. My work spans the globe with numerous awards, commissions and pieces in numerous private and public collections. I am also an author/illustrator of children’s books. In 2014 Tasunka: A Lakota Horse Legend was released and is the winner of four national awards: Mom’s Choice Award, Moonbeam Award, Aesop Award and the coveted Western Writers of America 2015 Silver Spur Award. In 2017 my second book, Muskrat and Skunk: Sinkpe na Maka: A Lakota Drum Story, was released.

In 2014 I was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame. In November of 2021 I was awarded the Western American Award for Lifetime Achievement from The Center for Western Studies at Augustana University, and in December 2021 I received the first Living Treasure Award of the Lakota Nation through the Lakota Nation Invitational (LNI) in Rapid City.

All Clear is a mixed media original created with Prismacolor pencils on an antique Justice’s Docket ledger page dated 1899.

This piece is mounted to acrylic on canvas and is embellished with leather thongs and abalone shells.

Kathy Sigle Bison Brigade F RAM E D 29″ X 14 ″

kathysigleart.com facebook.com/kathysigleart Instagram: JimKathySigle jksigle@gmail.com When I was six years old, I entered my first art contest and won first place. My early works were in colored pencil. My mother, Marion Toillion, is also an artist and she introduced me to watercolor. We had many enjoyable years together each building our own art businesses.

Painting is such a joy for me. I hope others feel that joy when they view my work. I produce realistic, detailed pieces with layering techniques and the use of color and light. My love for the West has inspired me to create paintings incorporating and combining quick, loose technique with the highly detailed renderings that are achievable in watercolor.

It is very typical for an older bull bison to go off on his own or to join a small bachelor group. Mature bulls often spend the majority of the year alone or in small groups with other males, except during the rut. I titled this original Bison Brigade. I usually work on smoother clay surfaces, but this time I chose to texture the board before painting it. It is more challenging to work on a rough surface, but I really like the end result. It gives a look similar to a bison hide.

Melissa Wood Tatanka Skies

FRAM E D 31.5″ X 23.5″

melissawood67@yahoo.com (605) 484-1803 Melissa Wood Gallery 914 Main St • Rapid City, SD 57701

I am a professional watercolor artist and retired art teacher.

I find great joy in the spontaneity of painting using watercolor and love to experiment and explore this transparent medium.

Even though I create in a variety of art mediums, I find my first love is painting in watercolor. After teaching secondary art for 35 years, I now have the pleasure of sharing watercolor techniques with adults by hosting weekly painting classes.

To keep my art evolving, I participate in a variety of workshops with professional artists and keep my brushes wet by painting daily. I am a charter member and signature member of the Northern Plains Watercolor Society and a member of the Dakota Artists Guild.

The inspiration for Painted Ponies came from my winter getaways to Arizona. I purchased a metal horse sculpture from an Arizona artist, and it led me to create some pieces to display with this sculpture. This painting has a contemporary feel. I loved using the vivid colors, adding the designs in the ponies and creating the effects of an Arizona evening sky as the sun goes down.

I was born and raised in Rapid City and have lived here my entire life. My study of watercolor began in 2007, when I started taking classes taught by the well-known local artist, Richard DuBois. (Dick’s Chicks page 7) I am continually in the process of stylistic change and enjoy a bold departure from traditional color and perspective. Often, my paintings are a reflection of my mood; sometimes colorful and bold, and other times dark with messy texture.

I am honored to have the opportunity to mentor the kids at Black Hills Children’s Home each year as a Dream Team Mentor teaching watercolor. (Dick’s Chicks and Dream Team Mentor page 7) I also serve on the Jon Crane Auction Planning Committee.

This painting was inspired by a day trip to the Badlands with my daughter. I took a photo of this scene at the end of the day. In my watercolor, I wanted to capture the beautiful sky as the sun went down as well as the powerful spirit of the buffalo. I love the contrast of the moody sky, the rugged terrain and the strength of the bison.

State Game Lodge 100th Anniversary

Pear

FR A MED 26 ″ X 22″

iiimark@aol.com IndOptical@aol.com (605) 343-6617 This is my ninth year participating in the Jon Crane Children’s Home Society Benefit Auction. I have an artistic process when it comes to a piece for the auction. I scan Pinterest for weeks on end trying to find an idea. I often get discouraged by the infinite quantity of wonderful artwork. Ultimately, I zero in on a theme and start painting. It does not take long before I start thinking, “this is not going well.” When I am about half finished with my painting, I start to panic and think, “this is a bunch of crap!” All I really want to do at that point is throw it away and start over.

However, experience has taught me that I must carry on. As I get towards the end, I begin thinking that if I am really careful and don’t sneeze or spill my coffee on my watercolor, it may actually all work out. When I am finished and my painting is framed and matted, I am pleasantly surprised and confident it will raise some good money for the kids served by Children’s Home.

This original watercolor is the State Game Lodge in Custer State Park. It is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. I worked from a picture on a black and white postcard I found online. The lodge was the Summer White House in 1927. President Coolidge and about 80 people lived in Custer State Park that summer.

During his stay in the Black Hills, Coolidge visited many sites including Mount Rushmore and the Belle Fourche rodeo. After the President left, the State Game Lodge returned to its role as a hotel. Many years later, President Dwight D. Eisenhower stayed there for a few days. Today, people can still stay in the same bedrooms in which the presidents slept.

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

Sarahrogers.com Warrior’s Work & Ben West Gallery, Hill City sarahrogers@rangeweb.net I was born in Seattle, but school years were spent in Florida and the Black Hills until receiving my BFA from the University of Florida where I had gone to become a neurosurgeon. I discovered the University also has a good art school. Moving on to South Carolina, I worked as a graphic designer in Columbia and Charleston.

New York then became home. Working on Madison Avenue as an art director for a small and creative advertising agency was an exciting adventure for almost a decade. I now gratefully live and paint in the Black Hills, another exciting adventure.

Watercolor is my medium of choice. Working on very smooth surfaces, rather than traditional rough watercolor paper, allows me to make my own textures. Masonite, with a smooth clay surface, lends itself to scrubbing, lifting and otherwise removing pigment and reapplying it to create a variety of surfaces. I choose traditional subject matter and medium, but use both in a non-traditional manner. The subjects are certainly recognizable but often not realistic. My perceptions are expressionistic and somewhat abstract.

Red bears and buffalo are not common. The paint is the real subject—the quality of line, the handling of color, texture and space (positive or negative). The paint and how it moves is the focus.

I painted Pear for an art show titled “And Now for Something Completely Different.” It was fun to create something so different from my usual menagerie of critters. I like Pear and held onto it for a while for inspiration.

Jerry Green Split Personality

D IA METER 11″ X H EIGH T 9 ″

facebook.com/bearrock.jerrygreen jsgreen@gwtc.net (605) 673-3404 Bear Rock Studio • Custer, SD A native of South Dakota, I grew up in the foothills around Rapid City. An automotive machinist by trade, I started building furniture in the early 1980s. It wasn’t until a visit to a Santa Fe gallery in the mid ’90s that my attention was drawn to the lathe as a new avenue of artistic expression. Unlike the potter who builds up a vessel with clay, I reverse the process, revealing the art within a piece of wood by peeling away layers a bit at a time. Mastering the lathe is not an easy task, but the journey there is infinitely compelling.

I rented a house in Oklahoma City while visiting my daughter and her family. The homeowner had to cut down a tree due to ice damage, and this piece of wood had been there from the year before. The homeowner thought this piece of wood needed to travel back to South Dakota with me. As wood dries, it cracks. I use the natural defects in the wood as the artistic feature of the piece. Split Personality is walnut with turquoise inlay and birch splines. The piece has a buffed carnauba wax finish.

I am donating 100% of the sales proceeds from my original to Children’s Home Child Advocacy Center. The purchaser of this original gets a chance to win the framed Jon Crane print, Angie’s Greenhouse.

Richard DuBois Swim at Your Own Risk FR A MED 3 2″ X 26 ″

pearcros@yahoo.com (605) 391-0104 (email and phone number for Rose DuBois) A native of the Black Hills, Richard DuBois, (1941-2014) preferred traditional watercolor as his favorite medium. He attended the University of Wyoming, earning a master’s degree in art and continued post-graduate studies at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Richard taught art at Black Hills State University (BHSU) from 1969 until his death in 2014. He also maintained a private studio and home in Rapid City.

Richard was the co-founder of the Northern Plains Watercolor Society and served on the Board of Directors. In addition to his studio work, he conducted many watercolor workshops.

Throughout his career, Richard received numerous awards including the Rapid City Chamber Award for Liberal Arts in 2004, BHSU’s Alumni Association 2005 Excellence in Education Award, Spearfish High School Fine Arts Outstanding Alumni Award in 2007, The Allied Arts Fund “Heart for the Arts Award” in 2009, and numerous Gold, Silver and Bronze Medal Awards in the Northern Plains.

This is what Richard’s family says about this extremely unique original watercolor.

“Anyone who knew Richard DuBois would tell you he had an incredible sense of humor and Swim at Your Own Risk is proof of that. Richard was a world traveler and always marveled at the various body types of people who hung out at hotel swimming pools.

He decided to create this humorous piece depicting the older man in his Speedo, the young child running free, the older woman all dolled up in her heels and leopard swimming suit, the lady engrossed in meditation, and the hot shot landing a cherry bomb in the middle of the pool. This signed painting will surely bring a smile to anyone who has experienced a similar scene at a public swimming pool. Richard created this piece for pure enjoyment!”

“When adults are trained to protect kids, they will.

When entire communities are trained, they will cause a cultural shift that will protect children everywhere.” ~ author unknown

Jon Crane Mystic Dreams UN F RAM E D 13″ X 18″

jcw@joncranewatercolors.com (888) 948-1948

About his original: Mystic Chapel is the subject of several of Jon’s previous paintings and is the chapel in which he and Gail were married 29 years ago. Last summer a beaver built a dam on the creek across the road from the chapel, and it created a reflection in the water. Jon could not resist painting the chapel one more time.

JON CRANE Fresh out of the Air Force in 1976, Jon Crane made a radical decision. Rather than make a career out of flying a plane, he chose to make a career out of painting. His goal was simple.

He set out to find and paint beautiful places such as country churches, abandoned barns, glistening trout streams and dilapidated mines.

His favorite subjects are wild and nostalgic. Jon’s renderings are detailed and honest. His chosen medium is transparent watercolor.

Hundreds of paintings later, many of those beautiful places have changed or disappeared. Though his goal remains much the same, his work has taken on a new, more urgent dimension. His detailed and sensitive watercolors document and commemorate the changing rural American landscape.

He stubbornly continues to search out those vanishing remnants of history to preserve them on paper. His wife, Gail, likes to refer to him as a pictorial historian. In 2015 Jon received the South Dakota Governor’s Award for Distinction in Creative Achievement. In 2021, Jon was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame.

Jon not only has a passion for old things, but for the new as well.

Grateful for art education he received during his formative years in school, Jon now feels privileged to be able to give back in a way that benefits children. Jon’s desire is to support the Children’s Home programs in whatever capacity is needed, including art and restoring hope to children’s lives.
