Park City Photographer David Winegar Featured Again in Prestigious Springville Museum Salon

Springville, UT — Acclaimed Park City fine art photographer David Winegar has earned a coveted spot in the Springville Museum of Art’s 101st Annual Spring Salon, Utah’s longest-running and prestigious juried art exhibition. This marks Winegar’s second consecutive year receiving the honor.

His featured work, When the Leaves Are Gone – East Canyon Sunrise, is a striking 40x60 chromogenic print fused in museum acrylic. The piece captures the quiet majesty of an early morning sunrise in Utah, revealed after the last of the autumn leaves have fallen.

Winegar was also selected for the 100th Annual Spring Salon in 2024, where his large-format photograph First Snow on Fall Leaves – La Sal Range size 40x60 was showcased. His continued recognition underscores his growing prominence in the fine art photography scene throughout the West.
