Cover Artist Announced

The Wood and Swink Preservation Society is pleased to announce the cover artist for the 2011 Evinston Paint Out: Charles Dickinson of St. Augustine, FL.

Charles painted the image below on the last day of the 2010 Evinston Paint Out and it is the interior of the Wood & Swink Post Office and Old Store from the back door looking in. It is an elaborate and unique piece and will be reproduced in Limited Edition prints for the Wood & Swink to sell. 100% of the proceeds from print sales will go directly to the Wood & Swink. Only a small number will be printed so don't miss out on the opportunity to get yours! They will be for sale starting the first day of the Paint Out.
