Email Artist
Website

by Ann Scarlett Daley (Author), Michael Paglia (Author) Landscapes of Colorado features the efforts of artists who have used the state's natural beauty as inspirations for their paintings and photographs. Art curator Ann Daley selected the artists. Some lived in Colorado only briefly, while others have spent their entire careers in the state. Daley also provides an essay linking each artist to the impressive history of Colorado, where for over a century painters and photographers have been attracted to its magnificent views and its crisp, clear light. Art critic Michael Paglia provides a profile of each of the artists. In writing about them, he takes into account key experiences in their development, as well as analyzing their varying styles, the techniques they embrace, and places them in the broader context of landscape art. The artists found in Landscapes of Colorado display a wide range of aesthetic approaches from neotraditional to contemporary realist. Landscapes of Colorado is an overview of the rich vein of contemporary art in Colorado. This overview of the rich vein of contemporary art in Colorado highlights the varied work created in response to the natural beauty of the state.

Jill Carver wins Best of Show
9/4/2007 12:00:00 AM

Jill Carver's plein air painting, "Evening Rise, Lily Lake", won Best of Show honors at the 2007 Estes Park Plein Air event, "Painting The Parks" in Estes Park, Colorado. This was the sixth running of this annual international painting competition and show. Jill's painting was chosen out of over 210 plein air paintings completed during the competition by more than 70 artists from around the country. Jill's painting captured, very effectively, the fleeting, dramatic and ever changing early evening light at this very popular lake in the Rocky Mountain National Park. An additional honor was received by fellow NAPPAP professional member: Mike Bagdonas. Mike's painting, "Some Place In Time", won the Artists Choice award from the Cultural Arts Council of Estes Park. Jill's Best of Show painting and Mike's Artist Choice painting, along with other paintings completed during the competition period, will be on display for purchase at the Cultural Arts Council Fine Art Gallery through September 30, 2007.
