Cedar Breaks Wildflower Festival

Each year, Cedar Breaks National Monument hosts a Wildflower Festival. This year, the festival runs from July 2-July 18. To advertise the festival, the Monument publishes a nice color poster that is distributed throughout southern Utah. To produce the artwork for the poster, the Monument conducts a contest. You are looking at this year's contest winner. This is a large painting of a bristlecone pine that Valerie completed during March. Today, the National Monument selected it for its 2010 Wildflower Festival poster. Keep your eyes open for its debut.
