Landscape Wins Prize

Conserving Carolina Sign
In 2019, Conserving Carolina asked Vicki if they could use the image of one of her landscapes for a kiosk sign at Norman Wilder Forest, a 185-nature preserve located on Hwy 176 between Tryon and Saluda (NC). Vicki painted “Pink Fog V”, an acrylic on canvas, and Conserving Carolina had a reproduction made of it on metal for the sign. It was installed in spring 2020.
