Coming in September, Caroline Douglas, clay artist. Caroline will be introduced during our "BLISS" show opening September 9th.

 “To see Caroline Douglas’s work is to step into the wake of the sublime. Not the abstract sublime of modernism, but the timeless, exquisitely detailed sublime of childhood: an untrammeled sense of wonder, absorption, and infinite possibility. What does her ceramic menagerie reveal? ‘A bowl of welcome that holds up the sky,” as poet Claudia Van Gerven describes the sculpture “Hand Signals.’

Introducing Sheri Farabaugh!
Land and waterscape artists need constant reference material, so Farabaugh is fortunate to live in the gorgeous state of Colorado in the summer, and the intense desert state of Arizona in the winter.  It is her desire to transport the viewer directly to the moment she has captured and hope they find the peace and power that only nature can give.

Paula Colette Conley is the Director and Owner of Arts at Denver

"I love to sell art. Knowing that the artist will be able to continue painting, knowing the piece will live in someone's home and become a part of their family's lives; it's the best feeling!"

Paula was born in New York City and raised in Belguim. Her art career began when she taught craft lessons to children in her parents' Forest Hills apartment complex when she was seven, and designed cards for her parents' party invitations in Brussels. With a degree in Fine Art from the University of Colorado, Paula has been involved in galleries, painting and framing for more than twenty years. She works in pastels and watercolors (when she has the time and energy) and has sold her own works to collectors around the world.
