The Garden of the Gods has been a special place for me for many years. I used to work nearby and would take my lunch and set outside enjoying the magnificent view of Colorado red rocks.

Music at the Museum

Mixed Media/Fiber 18“W x 24″ L

I could hear this wonderful Jazz group playing off in the distance. I then looked out the window from my loft in Denver. I interpreted the plaza around the art museum showing bit of mystery around enjoying the night in the city.

City shapes, shadows, and lights are intriguing to me. I want the viewer to experience the concreteness of buildings versus the ephemeral feel of people in the nighttime city landscape. Hopefully, you can imagine the sounds of music. $400

Summer Ski Slope

Mixed Media/Fiber 24″ W x 12″ L

Almost everyone has heard of Aspen mountain and the challenging skiing that can be experienced. The town of Aspen itself still has a feel of Swiss villages but when wandering the center of town, you feel more like you are on rodeo drive in Los Angeles. The shops are no longer local but are filled with famous, high end names such as Prada.

Yet you could avoid this part of Aspen and enjoy the natural beauty. I visited the town of Aspen and the mountain overlooking the town in the middle of August. I took photos from the top of the mountain after taking a breath-taking gondola ride. The beauty of our Colorado mountains is still there. There is a vague shadow of where the ski sloops are groomed and made ready for winter. It was fun to recreate the feeling of the summer mountain in my art. $375

Ghost Ranch

Mixed Media/Fiber 24″ W x 20″ L

There is a special place in Northern New Mexico called The Ghost Ranch. I am not sure why the native people called it this name but now it has become a place for artists to study and hike.

It was originally owned by Georgia O’Keefe and she willed the land to the Presbyterian Church. I spent a week there studying painting techniques and hiking almost every morning. The views are beautiful. It makes no difference the direction you choose to look. The prevalent red rock formations dominate all views attracted me to this view immediately. I did a quick watercolor sketch and when I returned home to create this fiber art piece. $480
