Episode 273: Ukrainetz Fine Art

Rebecca and Shannon sit down with longtime Western artists and husband-and-wife duo Ron Ukrainetz and Echo Ukrainetz ahead of Western Art Week in Great Falls. Ron is known for his detailed polychromatic engravings on Claybord and historical oil paintings inspired by the Lewis and Clark Expedition, while Echo creates vibrant, one-of-a-kind batik pieces known for their rich color and striking contrast. In this episode of We're No Dam Experts, they talk about their artistic process, the stories behind their work, and their long connection to Western Art Week. You can see their work March 18–22, 2026 at the Out West Art Show at the Heritage Inn in rooms 146 and 148.
