You might think Kansas artist R. Gregory Summers will do anything to get attention — even search for extreme painting conditions to prove his mettle.

We recently reported on the efforts of R. Gregory Summers to paint under extreme heat and cold, and now we learn he was recently painting in a storm in the San Luis Valley of Colorado "The painting I completed during the storm was a winner," he says. "There is something about lightning and impending rain that makes one loosen up." For more information, visit www.rgregorysummers.com.
