Dear Friends As we go to press with our September newsletter, the annual Fall Arts Festival in Jackson Hole is rapidly approaching! One of the premier cultural events in the Rocky Mountain West, thousands of art enthusiasts are drawn each year to experience a multitude of art events, fine wine and cuisine, all amid the breathtaking beauty of the area. We are very pleased to feature a number of shows at the gallery that will be on view from September 9 through September 21. Mark Maggiori - One With the Sky features the newest studio works from the French born western painter. Executed with a contemporary feel, his paintings often document the lone cowboy, juxtaposed against layers of textured cloud formations. Colorado based artist Thomas Blackshear Mark Maggiori, Mesmerized, oil on linen, 38 x 40 inches, brings us Western $32,000 (Sold by Draw) Nouveau, a collection of new paintings that combine a representational approach imbued with a highly stylized look. Bonnie Marris gets Up Close and Personal with her uncanny ability to capture a deeper, more soulful aspect of the animals she paints. For Northern California based wildlife painter Shawn Gould, it’s all about Color and Light with his newest works which are a blend of photorealism and tonalism with areas of precise detail giving way to softer edges and muted tones. In addition to our featured shows, we also have many new offerings that will be available in the gallery throughout the month of September. We are fortunate to have many of the featured artists in attendance during our Open House on Saturday, September 14 from 4:00 – 7:00 pm and we hope you can stop by for a meet and greet!
