ART

W

estern surrealist artist Laura Donavan’s mountain roots began as a child visiting her grandparents’ ranch in the mountains of Colorado from her home state of Florida. But it took a journey from vet school to art school, and residences in Wyoming and Montana before Laura and her husband Bill landed in Salida to conjoin with the local arts scene. Her early artistic career was in digital commercial art, working with an array of popular brands, including Friskies and Sam Adams.

LAURA DONAVAN

Now her internationally renowned and collected work is expressed primarily in mediums beyond the digital, particularly in creating with hand-dyed paper and acrylic on birch boards. She also participates in metalwork collaborations— inspired by Mexico and the American Southwest—with her husband. To view Laura’s work, stop by the Mary Leslie Art Studio & Gallery at 148B E. First St. Open most days or by appointment via email maryleslieart@ gmail.com. Call (404) 434-1851.

Celia Adamec BROKER ASSOCIATE

(719) 221-3101 | CAdamec@PinonRealEstate.com My family came to Salida in 2015 in search of a small mountain community in which to raise our daughter where we could be close to nature and surrounded by friends. My background is in museum education, but a few years of property management in Boulder County led me to real estate, which has been incredibly rewarding. So many clients end up as friends, and the greatest reward of all is welcoming them to our community and watching them contribute their own unique gifts to Salida’s health and vibrant culture.

Each day I balance adventure with being a full time Realtor, business owner, mother to my two incredible girls — Izzy and Maggie — and wife to my husband Zack.

Before moving to Salida, I spent 10 years as a top-selling Realtor in the Oklahoma City area and love continuing my real estate career with Pinon.

PINON PERSONALITIES

Rich Edgington FOUNDER / OWNER

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT SALIDA?

(719) 539-0200 | REdgington@PinonRealEstate.com I am the Founding Partner and Co-Owner of Pinon Real Estate Group.

Born in Montana and growing up in the small town of Black Forest, Colorado, I moved to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area in my twenties to start a business and family. After twenty years of Texas traffic and heat, I longed to return to Colorado. Salida provided the ideal combination of climate, scenery, recreation, and small town values for my wife and I to raise our four children. I love fly fishing, enjoying outdoor time with my family, and driving vintage Porsche sports cars.

HOW FRIENDLY, WELCOMING, AND GENUINE THE PEOPLE ARE HERE.

Jill Jagger BROKER ASSOCIATE

(310) 383-0204 | JJagger@PinonRealEstate.com I moved to Salida in 2021 after living in Santa Monica for the past 25 years. A Colorado native, I moved to California to pursue my career in automotive advertising. I always knew I wanted to return to Colorado.

Opportunity knocked when I reconnected with my now-husband and he convinced me that Salida was the greatest place in the world. Working in the automotive industry and now real estate, I recognize that cars and homes are the two biggest investments people make during their lifetime. I’m here to ensure that process goes as smoothly as possible.

JoDee Kane GENERAL MANAGER

(719) 539-0200 | JKane@PinonRealEstate.com I’ve been with Pinon almost since the very beginning. Little did I know that answering an ad in the local newspaper in 2006 for the Front Desk Office Manager would launch my full-fledged career. In 2013, I decided to get my real estate license. With the encouragement and mentorship of my former boss — and the owners — I stepped into the role of General Manager in 2014. I feel a deep connection to the values of hard work, honesty, and integrity that we strive for here at Pinon. I’m so happy I found my Salida story and I hope you do too!

LATELY I’M LOVING THE VOLCANO ROLL FROM SUSHI THAI.

(719) 221-0682 | SLowe@PinonRealEstate.com

I’m all about making things happen, so to say I don’t waste time is an understatement. Salida has been my home since 2000, and I actually spent most of my summers here while growing up. I was born in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin and graduated from the University of Colorado in Boulder. I am both a Broker Associate and the long-term Property Manager for Pinon. A typical day? I return dozens of phone calls, show rental homes, and coordinate repairs. I send hundreds of emails each week, soothe nerves, distribute information, hold hands, and listen.
