In Utah, we observe several birthdays in the month of July. We have the 4th of July, which is the birth of our nation. We have the 24th of July, which commemorates the Mormon pioneers arriving in Utah. And on the 15th of July, we celebrate the birth of our favorite artist, Russell Ricks.
60 Candles
This year is a particularly significant birthday, as Russ turned 60. It was so monumental, in fact, that all 14 of our children, all their spouses, and nearly all our grandchildren joined us in Logan, Utah to spend an afternoon.
Come Join The Party!
We are inviting You to celebrate with us, as well. This year, we are giving away the presents. The first birthday treat is a free giveaway of a painting called “An Old Friend Study.” It is a framed 8×10″ oil on panel. The subject is one of the last remaining kit barns bought through the Sears catalog and arriving to the lot as a pile of lumber. It would then be put together piece by piece by the new owner. This particular barn is the Thayer barn located in Duvall, Washington.
The second present is a discount on Russ’ art. We are selling his art at 60% it’s original price. That’s a 40% discount! For example, if you were interested in buying “Pathway Through the Aspens”, it’s normal cost is $650. At 60% it will only cost $390! (Unframed, and plus Shipping, of course.)
This Is How It Works
To qualify for the giveaway, follow Russ on Instagram @russellricks_art, and/or Facebook, Russell Ricks. Then sign up for his newsletter by going to his website at russellricksart.com. Once you are on both lists–Instagram/Facebook and newsletter–tag a friend on IG or FB and then you will be entered into the drawing for “An Old Friend Study.” The more tags, the more entries. You can enter the drawing through July 31. The winner will be announced August 3.
To buy Russ’ art at a discount, go to russellricksart.com. The prices listed on the website are the full price. To purchase the piece you want, send us a message through the website with the name of the painting you wish to purchase. We will then email you the discounted price, including shipping, and we will arrange payment and shipping. (Paintings listed with Sego 3 Gallery are available to purchase, but not at the 40% discount.)
Happy Birthday!
We hope you will all join in the birthday festivities by signing up for the newsletter and entering the giveaway. Feel free to contact us about any of the other available paintings on the website to find out what great savings we are offering. Sale and giveaway end July 31, 2018.
