Jackson Hole Art Fair with WCA Guide Brenda Swinney:

Don’t miss WCA Guide Brenda Swinnery at the Jackson Hole Art Fair this coming weekend (August 11th – 13th)!

Brenda grew up in the Kansas City area, fishing with her family in the Missouri Ozarks for crappie, bass and catfish.  She attended the Kansas City Art Institute and earned her BFA in Painting from the University of Kansas.  After a decade-long career as a chef, and finding herself headed toward the wedding catering industry, she chose instead to head west and pursue her wildest dream (at the time, that is) of being a flyfishing guide.  She attended Western Rivers Guide School in 1997, and has happily guided on the South Fork each summer since.  She joined the WorldCast guide staff in 2013.  Brenda has been featured on Flyfish Television and Sporting Fly’s Snake River Idaho DVD.  Her “Plan B” (her friends call her “B”) fly pattern is a local favorite and was featured in Fly Tyer magazine.

Brenda spends her winters in her Kansas City studio painting landscapes from the South Fork of the Snake River and Greater Yellowstone Territory.  You can catch Brenda at the 51^st Annual Art Fair Jackson Hole this weekend, August 11-13, Friday/Saturday 10-6, Sunday 10-4. You can also view her art at a WorldCast Anglers in Victor, the South Fork Lodge, Local Galleria in Driggs, Henry’s Fork Anglers Gallery in Island Park, and on her website, www.mightyreel.com.
