Join us for a South Dakota Art Museum Guild gathering featuring Sioux Falls artist Rodger Ellingson. Rodger will share works from his body of plein air and studio paintings in watercolor and acrylic. His favorite subjects are the cities and countryside of the upper Midwest and the northern Rockies. ‣ 9:30 a.m. – Coffee and Social Time
‣ 10:00 a.m. - Rodger Ellingson | Events and Seasons: Painting in Living Color
Working in both watercolor and acrylic, Rodger usually paints smaller plein air paintings of nature or downtown scenes during the summer. During the winter he creates larger, more colorful acrylic paintings. These larger paintings often include groups of people in various local settings. For example, his 36” by 36” acrylic on canvas “Augustana Band” colorfully captures the bright energy of a marching band on game day and was featured in the South Dakota Governor’s 11th Biennial Art Exhibition on display at the South Dakota Art Museum in 2025. His work can be seen at the East Bank Gallery in Sioux Falls and at area art festivals.
Guild membership is encouraged but not required to attend monthly programs. Dues of $30 per year support Guild programs and contribute to the Museum’s Art Acquisition Fund.
