Crested Butte's old Town Hall, which is also the building that houses my first gallery, the Paragon Co-op. It is one of the longest running artist's co-ops in the country, established in 1979....the same year I was "established", as it were. It's a pretty cool concept. They even let a twenty-five year old me be the Gallery Director for a time, which essentially meant I got the tall, cushy barstool at the meetings. But it sounds good. I probably should have posted a better painting to represent it, but, you know....

Catalyst
I am using this blog as a catalyst, to inspire me to paint every day. There are forms, compositions and color juxtapositions everywhere i look, provided that i take the time to do so. So if you see that i haven't posted a painting in several days, leave me a comment deriding me for my laziness and lack of artistic conviction. I have no excuse not to put brush to canvas, regardless of the subject matter around me. I hope you enjoy the results.
