She stud- ied at his summer school in Virginia City, Montana and at his school in Sarasota, Florida. In 1981, Jean took a stained glass class from Kennedys Stained Glass and fell in love with the medium. After years of designing and fabricating glass, she found a way to return to her love of painting by combining oxides and enamels with glass and firing the pieces in the kiln. Raised on a ranch and mar- ried to a rancher, Jean has a pas- sion for Montana history, geolo- gy and landscape. She also has an interest in space exploration based on the beauty of the Hubble Telescope photographs. She is currently bringing human forms and portraiture to her glass and painting with egg tem- pera on true gesso panels. Robert Alexander James, known as Sandy, was born to a pioneering horse prairie ranch- ing family in 1946. His mother and father were both proficient musicians. He was the family renegade, avoiding a classical approach to music. He preferred listening to Western music in the bunkhouse with the hired men. Sandy has been writing songs for the last 25 years. He sings to his own piano accompaniment and entertains audiences with his unique and humorous out- look on contemporary living and politics. Although he has written a few parodies to well known songs, he generally composes his own music to match the lyrics of Tell ’em, “I Saw It In The BoZone!” ––– The BoZone Entertainment Calendar • www.bozone.com • 406-586-6730 • Volume 22, Number 10 - May 15, 2015 • page 7A “...And Red All Over”—or at least at the start.
