Sealed Bid Auction!!!

"Leaving the Tetons"
|
This is a 24"x36" oil painting framed in a massive and ornate gold carved frame. This is a "sealed bid" type auction and the minimum opening bid we can accept is Three Thousand Dollars ($3000.00). These Fair paintings for the scholarship fund have sold for amounts between $3500 and $10,000 over the last 5 years, so if you make a bid then get to thinking that someone else might have already outbid you we encourage you to bid again at a higher amount to ensure it is YOU who wins this Original Fred Oldfield!
Our WINNING BIDDERS, Diane and Terry
As always, all monies go to the Fair's Art Scholarship Fund for area high school students to attend college.
The Puyallup Fair’s Fred Oldfield Scholarship for the Arts is awarded to four graduating seniors who have been involved in the study of arts, including music, theater and art. They must demonstrate a serious pursuit towards a career in the arts. They will receive a scholarship of $1,000 for their first year of studies. Each year this art scholarship is funded in part by the proceeds of the Fred Oldfield painting created for the Quick Draw Auction held during the previous year’s Puyallup Fair. The 2006 recipients include the following high school graduates and their selected college:
- Christina Walker, Puyallup High School, 3.83 GPA • Art Institute of Seattle
- Grete Bergland, Emerald Ridge High School, 3.66 GPA • California Lutheran University
