Augmented Reality Walking Tour is Up!

Have you noticed the plaques around town sharing about my artwork and an augmented reality walking tour?  It's up and working with an android phone (Apple version to come soon!).  Take a little tour, watch the magic happen and patronize each of the wonderful businesses and entities who have jumped in to bring this tour to you. 
If you would love to have your own piece of augmented reality animated art, the app will work on my art prints, as well as on the originals and prints seen around town.  Check out my store and the prints available to you and step into the AR world we've brought you.  :)

I can't help it! It's so fun!  Here's my latest Found Art Piece, where I take a Rembrandt reproduction of Girl with a Broom and add my own two cents!  Super cheeky. 
The original is available: call (303) 668-9721 if interested.

Golden VR Art Walking Tour

I'm working on something exciting for the town of Golden, and I finally get to share about it.  Remember reading Harry Potter as a kid and thinking magical artwork would be cool? Well, augmented reality animations, using a cell phone app are becoming more common and we've  developed an app that will make animations a part of my art pieces.
I'm partnering with DejaVu Dimensions and local businesses in Golden, Colorado to create an Art Walking Tour, to give visitors to Golden and locals another reason to visit local hot spots and restaurants that welcome foot traffic.  Visitors will be encouraged to tour the art pieces and murals placed throughout town and view each animation through our cell phone app.  If desired, local businesses can also place promotions in the app to encourage these art appreciators to make a purchase when they stop by to view the art. It's a win-win!
If you're a downtown Golden business and want to be considered as a partner, send us your information through this page.  There's a limited window of time to join us for this opportunity.

"When the West was Wild"

Sometimes when I feel like a painting is completed, I sit back and wait.  Because...is it really all done, or do I just want it to be? 
This one, up above, is *almost* done.  The sitting back and waiting gives my mind time to look things over and say, "Wait, I need a saddle girth," or "What about a bit more detail in our escaping dino on the left?" or, "I feel like a need a few more touches of blue in here..."
Sometimes my mind just needs a moment or two to think things over, to let the image settle, so to speak, and to let the little things rise up that need a bit of attention. And then, I take care of them. 
This painting, though, even slightly unfinished, makes me smile.  I hope it makes you smile, too.

The Bard's Folly

  I had so much fun creating this mural for the Golden Game Guild! I wanted to create a piece that welcomes the viewer in.  Our Elven archer is life size and very fun for including in selfies.  The stone steps feel as though you could walk right up on them. The fantasy creatures are full of action and even more detailed in person.
  Learn more about this wonderful Golden business and watch the image come together via time lapse, in the video below!

New Mural at the Golden Game Guild

There is an exciting new mural in process over at the Golden Game Guild!  For lovers of fantasy, in particular, this one will be very fun to see. Golden's newest business is a delightful place to visit, whether you enjoy role playing games, meeting new people in a fun environment or playing board games with your family. 
And to go along with the fun of a fantasy feel, I am in the process of creating a 12' x 8' mural in the back room.  Look for magical creatures and a fight between good and evil!  Since fantasy art was one of my first loves (Oh yeah, see my 10 year old self draw those unicorns!), it has been such a delight and joy to dive into this fantasy mural.  I can't wait to show you all the time lapse!

Cherokee: The Gathering

One reason I am so inspired by our First Nations is because they understood, appreciated and used symbolism from the natural world. The colors red, black and white were very important to the Cherokee, and each of the fauna and flora that the seven Cherokee clans were named for, held significant meaning for the place that clan held within the tribe. As an artist who delights in symbolism, I love that.

I do love a picture that tells a story. 
This one suggests some questions which also makes me happy.  Who is she turning to smile at, on this early morning visit?  Were they worth the wait? 
She seems to think so, judging by that smile.
For me references, I used a Colorado model with Native American background, designed and fitted her Victorian costume and scoped out the setting we would use (North Table Mountain) in advance.

 My partner and I found the spot we would use as our background in February 2021, at the north trailhead of North Table Mountain in Golden, Colorado.

It was then only a matter of putting all the pieces together:  our model, our costume, the location and, of course, the other riveting detail in this image:  our local horse, River.
Owned by Golden local, Karyn Peabody, who served as our handler on the day of the shoot, this beautiful horse glowed like a unicorn and had an incredibly  sweet personality. 

Born and bred in Karyn's family's barn, this beautiful horse has been with Karyn ever since and the care and love the two had for each other was obvious. 

We were very grateful that we were able to use her in the shoot, as River had a little health scare on the very day we were shooting, but the vet got her what was needed and she was already feeling great in time for her photo session.
