2002 Artist - Daniel Smith
Daniel Smith, one of America’s foremost nature artists, enjoys wide acclaim for his spectacular depictions of landscapes and wildlife.

Smith lives in the mountains of southwest Montana where artistic inspirations surround him. Painting full time for more than twenty years, over 100 of his paintings have been reproduced as limited edition prints. Daniel has designed more than thirty stamps, including the 1988–89 Federal Duck Stamp, and he was recently selected as Ducks Unlimited International Artist of the Year for the second time. In 2002 he received the “Award of Excellence” from the Society of Animal Artists.

The detail and scientific accuracy of Smith’s art caught the eye of organizations such as the National Geographic Society, who commissioned him to paint five color plates for The Field Guide to the Birds of North America, and the prestigious “Birds in Art” exhibition sponsored by the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum. In 1996, he was inducted into the U.S. ART Hall of Fame due to his great popularity among print collectors.

Smith travels frequently to research his subjects in their natural habitat, believing that there is no substitute for personal experience in the field. An ardent supporter of wildlife conservation, he feels indebted to the natural world that has provided him with the sole inspiration for his award-winning career. For the 2002 Paraduxx label, Smith created an acrylic painting of a pair of Canvasbacks.

Paraduxx—A Napa Valley Red Wine

Paraduxx is a unique Napa Valley red wine in the tradition of the world’s great blends. From the Super Tuscan wines of Italy to the Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon blends of Australia, many great winegrowing regions have created their own authentic varietal pairings. Paraduxx was created in 1994 to provide our winemaking team with the opportunity to explore other varietals. We quickly recognized Paraduxx as having its own character and style. Created from Zinfandel—a grape synonymous with California—Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, Paraduxx’s goal is to craft a world-class wine with a distinctly Californian personality. With a blend that includes Napa Valley mountain fruit as well as valley floor grapes from Estate vineyards, Paraduxx has rich, full fruit flavors and soft, integrated tannins, making it a natural complement to a wide array of foods.

Each vintage, the Paraduxx brand celebrates an artist-label series with a different artist’s signature medium and style interpreted through a pair of ducks native to the Pacific Flyway. The 2002 Paraduxx label is the ninth in this series. Duckhorn Wine Company supports conservation of the wetlands of the Pacific Flyway.
