"Bisbee Reds" by Sam Woolcott

As a former architectural student, Sam Woolcott specializes in rendering the unique quality of Bisbee, Arizona’s township and surrounding areas. Buildings, arroyos, stairs and grasses populate her canvases: her bold and adventurous use of color and perspective capture the lively spirit of the town.

Sam has won awards in national art shows including First Place in Drawing & Pastels from the Scottsdale Arts Festival in Arizona in 2009, First Place in Painting and three-time Award Winner in Drawing at the Sausalito Art Festival in California and the Jurors Award at the Plaza Show in Kansas City, Kansas in 2005. Locally, Sam won Best in Show at the Bisbee Plein Air Competition in 2004 and again in 2007, along with winning the Bisbee Artist Award.
