Art Shack Workshops at Sundance Resort, Utah

Standing before 11,750-foot Mt. Timpanogos, easel and brush at the ready, may be all the inspiration you need to channel the talents of the late Joy of Painting landscape artist. But just in case, one of Sundance's eight artists-in-residence will be there to offer up personalized instruction-one happy little tree at a time. $60 a class; 801-225-4107, ext. 4535; sundanceresort.com
