A true outdoorsman of the American West, Paco Young made his home near the Gallatin River outside of Bozeman, MT, with his wife and
young son in an environment that provided constant and ever-changing inspiration for his art. He was passionate about each painting
because he painted familiar subjects that he loved. Young's favorite way in which to work was painting en plein air, or outdoors on
location. He felt that this technique taught him the most about painting.
Young's subjects were almost entirely derived from trips
to nearby Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Glacier National Parks. He once said, "There's an endless source of inspiring subject matter
in the Northern Rockies.
