We’re thrilled to announce The American Landscape: Photographs by Dee, a special exhibition of Dee Sell’s photography still has some photos available for purchase.

Every dollar from the 20" x 30" prints will help fund upgrades to the Mary L. Martin Art Gallery, including much‑needed tracking to better hang and display future exhibits.

Each print is produced on a high‑quality, lightweight photo board using long‑lasting UV inks for exceptional clarity and durability. The smooth satin finish reduces glare, and the unframed design features a slotted hanging block for a clean, modern presentation. Every piece is printed directly onto a rigid 1/4-inch black photo board with a white base layer that enhances brightness and contrast. We are hoping to begin the offer conversation at $150.

Email us your offer to: [email protected] or by calling us at 620.365.4765.
