Julie Nighswonger
J
ulie Nighswonger’s art exemplifies life
in the West in a way that captures the
beauty of her surroundings. In a style
that she describes as impressionistic realism,
Nighswonger depicts moments that she
believes are all too often taken for granted.
Her work is an exploration of nature,
animals and the West. “Certain things catch
my eye,” Nighswonger says, “It’s the crisp
early morning light, the warm glow of the
evening or the way the light dances off of
a horse’s mane.” In her work, she strives to
document and share the uniqueness of the
Western landscape and its cowboy lifestyle.She adds, “It is my hope to stir a memory or
evoke an emotional response.”
This spring Nighswonger’s artwork can
be found in Great Falls, Montana, during
Western Art Week at the Out West Show &
Sale in Room 284 and during the Montana
Miniatures exhibition. Both of these shows
are at the Best Western Plus Heritage Inn
from March 20 through 23.
Nighswonger will also be in Arizona
participating in Cowgirl Up! from March 29
through May 12 at the Desert Caballeros
Western Museum in Wickenburg and at the
Phippen Museum’s Western Art Show & Sale
in Prescott over Memorial Day weekend.Early Morning Jingle, oil, 12 x 36"ARTIST FOCUS
