Jamin's Vision
You can also contribute to The Jamin Fund by purchacing a Giclee Print of "Jamin's Vision". The original oil painting from which these prints are made is an identical representation of the photo which Jamin personally took and was used at the Denver Memorial Service.
The mountain scene had captivated J.B. not long before his death, when he was traveling in Switzerland. This captivating mountain scene by artist Renee Palmer-Jones conveys lofty ideals, peaceful serenity, and dreams of grandeur.
The prints are available on canvas or matte paper, depending on size. All prints will be shipped unframed. Below are the suggested donations to The Jamin Fund for each size of print:
8 X 10 $35 (matte paper) 11 X 14 $60 (matte paper) 12 X 18 $150 (canvas) 16 X 24 $225 (canvas) 24 X 36 $595 (canvas)
