adri norris’ “women behaving badly” closing reception

June 8, 2022 by Jessica Cusick Leave a Comment

Please join us for the closing reception of “Women Behaving Badly” on October 28, 4 – 6 pm.

Artist Bio:
At an early age, I knew I wanted to be an artist. Throughout all my life’s changes, moving from Barbados to New York, to New Mexico, then joining the Marines, art was the one thing that persisted. I was raised to be a leader, to see myself as someone who could help people and improve lives. It was only in the last few years that I figured out how I would do that.

Show Statement:
The Women Behaving Badly series was born out of a desire to educate people about women from the past. Their stories have been lost over time and this loss is a disservice to those women, to the women and girls living now and to society as a whole. Sharing these stories through my art inspires young girls with role models they’ve never seen before. These stories make adults think more about what they have and what they have yet to gain by listening to the voices of the unheard.

gallery reception for meghan wilbar + alexandra forsythe

April 29, 2022 by Jessica Cusick Leave a Comment

Join us to celebrate Meghan and Alexandra for their opening reception on July 9, 5 – 7 pm in the Kinder Padon Gallery. Their gallery show will run through August 7.

“Path to Eminence”  by Meghan Wilbar

As the clouds shift and change the landscape, I’ve been watching and drawing. I’m drawing the intimate story that exists by looking into the vastness of the open road and selecting the story through torn paper and drawn line. During the days of staying close to home, I’ve been drawing in my car with a pencil and an assortment of papers. It’s a process of careful looking and deciding what story gets told through the lens of shifting impermanence. Concentrating on a 5 mile stretch of Highway 96, I’ve returned throughout the year to walk, draw and absorb the change of form and color at the point where day becomes night. The stretch of landscape includes bluffs, mountains and prairie where shapes change depending on the light. Color, form and imagery create spaces that are both solid and ephemeral. I work to capture these moments through drawing and memory to use in the studio. Every drawing is a prequel to the story the painting tells and will be on view as a pair to show the journey through both observation and interpretation. This exhibition will include both existing works as works that are currently in process. As we move into winter with extended moments of darkness, the project continues with new forms and colors. Through this journey, my work reflects both the strength and fragility of our fleeting moments of time.

Meghan specializes in contemporary painting, landscapes and torn paper drawings. Check out her Instagram!

“Memoric Displacement” by Alexandra Forsythe

I learned bead stringing and weaving techniques at the age of 7. This combined with an eye for color and design, earned me several commissioned pieces from family and friends. After being introduced to silversmithing by local jeweler Dave Morgan at the age of 14, I was excited to take my love of stones and metal to a new level. At the age of 16 I attended the intensive jewelry program at the highly respected Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco, CA. I was one of the youngest students ever to attend the program and had a keen interest in every subject offered. My drive to master the skill set presented helped me place second in my class’s final design competition. Attendance at advanced seminars further opened my eyes to the possibilities of incorporating finely made hinges and granulation in my work. The melding of these elements with the organic texture of cuttlefish allows me to express my creative impulses and deep connection to nature.  Hand-casting cuttlebone in fine silver and gold provides an element of surprise and pure organic patterning that is impossible to create otherwise. I allow the inspiration of the waves and swirls that emerge to guide my placement of stones and the shaping of the final pieces. Those who wear my jewelry swear by the durability and comfort. My studio is located in historic downtown Buena Vista, Colorado. I have bench-side views of several 14,000 ft peaks and an expanse of wild terrain to keep me both inspired and grounded. Being able to take an hour or two each day to hike with my dog, rock climb, or raft on the beautiful Arkansas River helps me maintain balance and perspective.

Alexandra specializes in jewelery making.

Join us to celebrate Karen’s opening reception on June 17, 5 – 7 pm in the Kinder Padon Gallery. Can’t make it in person? Check out our Gallery Catalog to purchase artwork online!

Karen’s show runs June 13 – June 24.

artist biography

Karen was born and raised in a small community north of Salt Lake City, Utah. She began her study of art early in life and still enjoys attending classes and workshops taught by fellow artists. She has studied under the direction of such well-known Utah artists as the late Anton J. Rasmussen and Willamarie Huelskamp. Her works have been displayed in the Park City Kimball Art Center, the University of Utah, the Bountiful /Davis County Arts Center, the Denver Teller Street Gallery & Studios, at Utah and Colorado Watercolor Society exhibits, at the Gunnison Arts Center and in retail and private collections in Utah, Colorado, Arizona and California. Karen has taught watercolor painting for over thirty years; most recently at the Gunnison Arts Center and the Center for the Arts Crested Butte. Her classes range from beginning to advanced instruction. She has served on the board of the Colorado Watercolor Society (CWS) and has achieved Signature Status with the CWS. Karen has also served as President of the Western Slope Chapter of the CWS. Before beginning a painting or drawing, she will spend a considerable amount of time visualizing what she wants to capture and convey to the viewer. The focus is not always on the literal accuracy of producing an image but rather on her own interpretation and, at times, she incorporates abstract lines and vibrant colors. She enjoys experimenting and exploring new techniques by painting on canvas, rice paper and YUPO. Karen states, “Because of the inexhaustible opportunities and challenges of expression, I’m continually trying to develop, refine and reinvent my drawing and painting techniques.”

Jessica Marie Leak’s Repeat Until Dead Gallery Reception

February 23, 2022 by Jessica Cusick Leave a Comment

Join us to celebrate Jessica Marie Leak’s gallery show opening reception on Friday, March 4 from 5 – 7 pm in the Kinder Padon Gallery.

Jessica’s show runs March 4 – April 1.

Unable to make it in person? View Jessica’s online catalogue here!

artist statement

Jessica Marie Leak is a queer black indigenous abstract artist based in the Gunnison Valley.

The paintings I produce are reverberations of what I experience and/or observe others experience in everyday life. On the surface, I see joy, pain, love, anger, and even tranquility. There is also an abysmal level where my work really strikes through to the audience because it is here where stories between the audience and myself become never-ending. This is the connection I strive to make through my art- I want to make everlasting connections with people who want to see the world in their own view but also, in others. Simply put, the stories derived from my own creation of my work create a dynamic flow in what the audience has to share of themselves in response.

artist biography

Jessica is an intriguing and enigmatic artist whose cross-cultural roots are the foundation for vibrant and deeply emotional paintings. With a flair for structure and movement, her work captures the eye and conveys an uncontrived and understated depth of feeling. Her foundational and evolutionary pieces are highly sought-after and coveted.

“Outliers” by Teri Havens artist reception

November 12, 2021 by Jessica Cusick Leave a Comment

PLEASE NOTE:  Proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test must be shown for entry into this event at the Center.  See our current COVID policy HERE

Please join us Thursday, December 9th 5 – 7 pm at the Center for the Arts in Crested Butte to celebrate at the gallery reception of Teri Havens’ “Outliers” in the Kinder Padon Gallery. Enjoy a dramatic photography exhibit, live cello, and complimentary drinks and art-inspired cocktails.

For more information about Teri and her work visit terihavens.com

ABOUT THE SERIES

I’ve always had a thing for bars. The more marginal the better. I’m mostly drawn to rural or urban outliers – raw, dilapidated joints that evoke an earlier, grittier era. An authentic down-to-its-rotting-bones refuge where a hard-edged world is numbed and softened by alcohol and dim lighting.

Defiant vestiges of the past, the bar always seems the last to go. After the grocery store, the lumberyard and the barbershop long ago surrendered to the future and shut their doors for the final time, the bar stayed on. Slumped alone on the edge of a discarded town, its neon spills out onto the asphalt and burns through the night. Inside, the beer is cold, and the jukebox stocked with George Jones and dirges from an irretrievable past. Outliers is an homage to the humble bar. Handcrafted palladium prints of simple, solitary structures shrouded in loneliness and isolation, yet miraculously, as if blessed by some divine patron, still open. The images are captured using either moonlight or ambient streetlight. The finished palladium print, a hybrid of modern digital technology and 19th century printmaking techniques, reflects the context of the antiquated buildings – still alive, but barely – within contemporary society.
