On Monday Augus 16th, Gary Stone presented a special Woodcut piece he created for Glanbia Foods during their annual Golf Outing at Blue Lakes CC, to celebrate their reaching ONE MILLION DOLLARS in Charitable donations.
Pictured here is Gary with just 2 of the 3 panels, which features the Blue Lakes Country Club, host of the annual Glanbia golf outing, with 2 Glanbia trucks crossing the Perrine bridge, and "Thanks a Million" written in the mountain tops of panel one.
Gary's tradition of "hiding" names was put to the test, as he hid within the painting over 50 names of Charitable organizations that have benefited from the generosity of Glanbia over the 17 years of their event.
He also included another unique feature of his paintings, adding a recorded message with sounds of the canyon and a message from Glanbia thanking their supporters.
Pictures do not do justice of Garys intricate Woodcut art style, as he painstakingly carves images into the Cedar wood and creates masterpieces to be cherished. Once you have seen a "Gary Stone creation" you recognize his style and immediately begin looking at the minute detail to find "hidden" objects within each of his artistic treasures.
Gary is currently working on a "surprise" Life History woodcut for a family in Twin Falls, which is destined to become an heirloom for that lucky spouse.
