ROBERT B. Day, a retired graphics and commercial artist with Hill Air Force Base, spends much of his time painting now. He says, I prefer to paint outdoors by attempting to capture the basics of a painting and then refining and adding the final touches at home when the opportunity arises. "1 am now painting mostly land- scapes. There is nothing wrong with a virgin landscape untouched by miin. but evidence of someone's having been there makes it more meaningful to me." MR. DAY has studied under LeConte Stewart, as well as Fd Maryon and Ken Baxter, and has had several local exhibits. RATHER THAN rush into the project, though, the commissioner said, we want to be sure its done right, even if it takes a little longer. And, speaking of the obstacles, Environmental Health Director Richard Harvey added, Its like trying to cross Nevada. Theres always another mountain range."
