Preserving natural and historic places through the power of the arts.

We seek the vantage point of the early adventure artists…

to recreate the art of the picturesque…

and preserve the sacred places that inspired so many.

Words from Our Artists

“It is my hope that, as we cultivate our awareness of our complex and essential connection with Nature, we can begin to heal the earth and ourselves.”

Deborah Squier

“When my path converged with PAPA’s, there was a sense of adventure–one I hadn’t felt since hiking the Appalachian Trail. From the moment I met Doc (Scott), I knew what he had ahold of was unique, and I couldn’t wait to be part of it.”

Mike Wurman

“I find inspiration in the solidity of the rocks and mountains, the movement of cascading water, the texture of foliage, and the way the light interacts with these elements. It is my goal to compose paintings that invite the viewer to share in my perspective and envelope them with a sense of place.”
