Outsource Images: CD's are available to artists who would like digital photos of various places in the world. Outsource images are now available for:
Southeastern Oregon: Leslie Gulch and Succor Creek Canyon
Glacier National Park
New England
France, Belgium, and Morocco
Bryce and Zion Utah

Outsource image CDs are images which are free from copyright restrictions. These CDs are created so that artists can have an opportunity to paint from images taken from far distant places and yet be able to use those created images as their own. I encourage you to link to the pages listed below and consider this new concept.
