Crosby Canyon, © 2013 Keith Bond, 6 x 8 oil

This is my next auction painting.

Based off a couple plein air sketches and photos, this was a study working several elements from various sources into one composition. I was more interested in capturing the spirit of the place rather than a literal likeness. Crosby Canyon is in Southern Utah on the edge of Lake Powell.


The auction will end on Wednesday, Oct 30, 2013 at about 5 am - Mountain Daylight Time.

Add this little gem to your collection.

You are bidding for the painting unframed.

How to Bid:

- Minimum bid begins at $100 - yep, that's it!

- Bidding increments of $25

- No reserve price. Winning bid gets the painting.

- Just bid in the comment section below.

Good luck! I hope you get the painting.

I felt on was on to something. Thank you Keith for your fine FASO article and this blog.
I have bought a small painting this way before.

Thank you for this information, and for your wonderful painting! I've been looking to start a small auction site, and using my blog site seems to be the logical way to go. I plan on adding shipping information also. PayPal seems to be an efficient and safe vehicle for payment. Work to do! ;-)

KEITH, NICE STUDY. REMINDS ME VERY MUCH OF EDGAR PAYNE AND THE SPIRIT OF THE EARLY CALIFORNIA PAINTERS. I THINK YOUR APPROACH TO THIS IS THE WAY TO GO AND MORE LIKE WHAT THE OLD GUYS DID. MAKE ART!

Posted by JIM COSTON · via keithbond.com · 157 months ago

Good idea I'll have to try this soon. I like you're painting.

Posted by Keith Zudell · via keithbond.com · 157 months ago

Sorry typed my web address wrong. Your painting is still good like the brush strokes.

Posted by Keith Zudell · via keithbond.com · 157 months ago

Wonderful little gem Keith. Thanks so much for sharing your method with all of us!

Posted by Tracey Mardon · via keithbond.com · 157 months ago

All you ideas and viewpoints are great but this tops them. Thanks

Posted by Barbara Groenteman · via keithbond.com · 157 months ago

What a great way to start a collection of your work! With these prices, framed well, I could cover a wall studio style, without breaking my budget. And I'd have a very nice collection of a well known artist that I love. It just doesn't get any better than this. Thank you. I'll be back.

Posted by PJ Hornberger · via keithbond.com · 157 months ago

What a brilliant idea! Good for you for coming up with this, and better for you for sharing it! People love to buy art, but most can't afford to! This is definitely a win/win situation! I hope you sell lots!

I really like the way you linked this with your Blog on your website and then added sending an email and posting on Facebook. A simple plan that seems to work well. I plan to give it a try.

Congrats to Scott!

The Bidding is now closed.

HI Keith,
that's a really good idea and I would say you are having good results.Thanks for sharing your idea d method with us.
I don't know if it would work here in Ireland as our population is so small and money is scarce at the moment with the recession.Of course if the work appealed to overseas clients one could start the bidding high enough to cover postal costs

Posted by Louise Treacy · via keithbond.com · 156 months ago

What a lovely painting ! Each brush stroke is felt with a direct character. I wish i could paint like this, clean, determinate, and unhurried. It has a rhythm, it is almost a portrait...
Did it sell? or is it a bidding auction? It must be gone..
Bravo, Keith.
