A Charming Painting Experience i n Park City Utah 1 © Cindy Briggs

Are you looking for a charming painting experience in Park City, Utah? I always love both painting en plein air (outside on location) and at the Kimball Art Center in Park City, Utah. It’s such a beautiful place with delightful people, a wonderful atmosphere and breathtaking views. The bustling historic Main Street is charming, colorful and eclectic. The surrounding landscape offers picturesque mountains, farmlands and natural open space, cabins, classic barns and ski lodges.
