Scattered throughout Telluride are galleries showing the work of Mountain Film artists: James Balog, Paul Bosch, Jimmy Chin, Lynsey Dyer, Jane Goren, Jason Houston, Aaron Huey, Robert Knight, Ace Kvale, Quang-Tuan Luong, Tom Mason, Peter Menzel and Faith D’Aluisio, Renan Ozturk, Cole Rise, Steve Winter and Jason Young. While I enjoyed the clear, clean vision of Jimmy Chin’s photography, and the sparkling mountain-love in the paintings of Paul Bosch, it was the whimsical and hip art of Lynsey Dyer that most caught our attention. And it was cool for my daughter Grace, to meet a smart young woman who’s also a ripping pro skier and an accomplished artist. Her very presence in the Steaming Bean, amid her prints and photos, seemed to say to a six year old that all things are possible with discipline, hard work, passion and talent.

Now, off to a day of films including Ghengis Blues, Reporter, and Rock Prophecy.
