I had the privilege of acting as Ambassador for Paint Arizona Days.  My post was Sabino Canyon Recreation Area in Tucson.  We had 8 painters participate at our site.  The hikers on the trail enjoyed watching and chatting with all of the artists. I had time to paint a couple of quick studies, though I spent most of my time engaging with the park visitors.
