I also consider some of my abstracts landscapes.” The paintings Kranstover will show are of images he painted depicting scenes from all around the state. “I do have Peoa, Kamas, Woodland and some Park City stuff in there as well, but I do make a lot of paintings that are all of Utah,” he said. “I like to get out and do plein air sketches. Then I’ll bring them back to the studio and work and rework with layers and layers of paint. That’s what it’s all about.” The exhibit will be composedof works Kranstover painted during the past year. “I like to take my time on the paintings,” he said. “Some of the big pieces do take quite a while to finish, and I like to change SCOTT IWASAKI The Park Record Visual artist William J.
