12 X 9 Oil on Canvas This original artwork was done while serving as the BYUI Department of Art Chair, at the same time as I was taking an online landscape class from artist John Poon - this is one of the many pieces I did during that time. This particular scene is from along the Teton river in Rexburg, less than two miles from my home. Original artwork of Oil on Canvas 12 x 9. Framed at 15.25 x 12.25.
