The winner of the 2014 Snoqualmie Plein Air Paint Out competition is an acrylic piece by Amanda Kindregan, titled “Snoqualmie River – Mill Pond Road.” Kindregan’s artwork will be featured on the 2015 Snoqualmie Plein Air Paint Out Poster.

Kindregan is a painter and printmaker who lives in the Snoqualmie Valley. As a graduate of the University of Washington with a Bachelor in Fine Arts in painting, her artwork has been exhibited in galleries locally and internationally, including Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, and Bristol, UK. She is known for her approach in oils, acrylics, brush and ink, and block painting.

The Snoqualmie Arts Commission purchased the winning piece for $300 and awarded gift certificates to the 2nd and 3rd place winners.

This annual art event is sponsored by the Snoqualmie Arts Commission, which welcomes artists of all skill levels and mediums to paint “en plein air” – in the open air – in downtown Historic Snoqualmie each August.

The Snoqualmie Arts Commission would also like to thank the full list of artists who participated in the 2014 Plein Air Paint Out: Maurice Bertram, Julie Brain, Andrew Bucklos, Wendy Buffett, Stan Chraminski, Nancy Garden, Debbie Howard, Evelyn Mineo, Dan Riley, Mami Shimomura, Roy Tan and John Tubbs.
