The award winning artists featured on our website have agreed to release a select few of their original pieces for reproductions as signed and numbered prints. Many of the original pieces featured here have been sold and are now in private collections.

Our signed and numbered prints have been reproduced to musuem archival standards using only the finest materials available on the market today. Thank you for visting and please enjoy.

After the capture is complete the image is tested for color and the file is then processed through our proprietary fine art software program. A great deal of time is spent on this process, as our reproductions MUST match the original piece EXACTLY!

The image is then sent to our printer (a state of the art 8 color system) at which time more color test are generated and compared to the original piece of art.

Once the reproduction has been approved by the artist, artist proofs are generated and saved for future color reference.

Our fine art prints are produced using only the finest materials available and all have been color spectometer calibrated and are rated museum archical.

We also offer a complete framing facility, all of our framing is done in accordance with museum archival standards.

Hopefully you can start to understand the painstaking process that is involved in producing fine art prints.

We ofter joke that the original piece of art probably required less time to produce.

Thank you for your interest.

Dan Beck - Dan Beck is an award winning artist and sought after teacher. He is in the permanent collection of the Littleton Historical Museum and has exhibited with the Phippen Museum in Prescott, Arizona. Dan's work has also been featured in "Southwest Art", "Art of the West" magazines and "Art Talk".Equally adept at figurative, still-life and landscapte, Dan paints both oils and pastels and feels he is firmly rooted in the tradition of Impressionism. His love of nature and a deep respect for the tradition of art serve as both guide and inspiration to his goal of "making a contribution" to the world of painting."Painting is a balancing act between opposite ideas - direct observation and instinct, control and spontaneity, even between the literal and the symbolic. It seems to me that although a painter is deeply involved with his own private investigation, his real aim is to communicate something that only the person looking at the painting really understands." Dan Beck

Kim English - Combining his love of travel with his enjoyment of observing human nature, Kim paints on location. Immediacy is apparent in his work because, according to Kim, it is the nature of his subjects and the most instinctive way to paint. "The process is like a performance. It combines the magic of spontaneity with candid observation of people." Form and light are critical elements in his compositions of street and market scenes, fishing boats and interiors. He has participated in numerous exhibitions including the New York Allied Artists of America, the National Academy of Design, the National Academy of Western Arts, among others.

Jane Ford - Jane's figurative work was featured in Southwest Art November 2007, Art Values Start Your Collection. She was awarded the Oil Painters of America Shirl Smithson Memorial Scholarship in 2006. Her work was shown in the Oil Painters of America National Juried Exhibition in 2004 and Oil Painters of America Regional Exhibitions in 2005 & 2007 as well as the Salon International at the Greehouse Gallery in San Antonio in 2008. Jane currently completed a project involving the Tarahumara Indians of Mexico. The Raumari (or running people) as the Tarahumara Indians call themselves, are an ancient tribe who have inhabited the Copper Canyon of Mexico for many centuries. In recent years drought conditions have been devastating to their population. She has had the privilege of building relationships with some families. These paintings and many more will be used in fundraising events."This experience touched me on many levels. These indigenous people were absolutely stunning to me on a visual and artistic level. As a woman I was overwhelmed by their daily life routine as mothers, artisans and providers. As an American, I found something about their community spirit, albeit a necessity for survival, strikingly refreshing. Their land is a powerful reflection of their rugged nature, their strength and their beauty. They often wear solemn faces. In their language they have not word for love. I wanted to tell a story. For the last three years I have been concentrating on painting the Tarahumara Indians. " Jane FordTo learn more about the Tarahumara Indians and how you can help please visit janeford.net.

Ernie Gallegos - Ernie Gallegos was born in 1948 in Las Vegas, NM. His family moved to Brighton, CO and he effectively grew up there. He was fortunate to study at the New York Art Students League, where he was instructed by nationally known artists David Lefell and Daniel Greene; he has also studied with Ramon Kelly.Ernie's paintings are beautifully subtle and textured. They capture the spiritual essence of the people he paints. He has the ability to capture the soft natural light so elusive to render in still life paintings. His landscapes are exciting, yet evoke a peaceful and enjoyable experience.Recent awards:Second place for "Crystalina" Northern CO Artist Assoc 12th National Art Exhibition and Sale, Apr/May 03.Best of Show for "Tang Tai Horse" in the 40th Annual National Greeley Art Exhibit and Sale, May 03.

Ray Knaub - Harmony, light, space and reverence for the land are the adjectives I would use to describe my interest in painting. My works are based on actual landscapes, but I feel no obligation to render them exactly as an illustrator would do. My art has evolved over the years to reflect a deeper internal interpretation." - Raymond Knaub on his art, prints and postersDuring high school in Nebraska, Raymond Knaub received no formal artistic training. While majoring in math and engineering at Baylor University, he happened to take a drawing class. Within a year he began to see the world with new eyes. He transferred to the University of Nebraska, majored in fine arts and graduated with a bachelor's degree. After graduate school at the University of Colorado in Boulder, there came a point when he looked around the art world and wondered, among all of the styles and media he had explored in school, where his own artistic direction might lead him. He has always considered Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth among his earliest influences and like them, he has always been attracted to traditional themes in his art, prints and posters.Raymond Knaub's work has appeared in Southwest Art, Colorado Homes and Lifestyles, Western Art Digest, Art Talk, Art of the West, and Who's Who in American Art. His art, prints and posters are highly prized by museums and corporate collectors from all over the country and one of his paintings was recently featured at the United States Embassy in Moscow. Knaub has been featured in many one-man shows throughout the Southwest. In June of 1996, the Museum of Nebraska Art featured Ray in a show entitled "Rural Wanderings".

Susiehyer - This award winning artist has been working professionally since 1976 and has been the recipient of a number of scholarships, grants, and awards for her work, including two international design awards. Her work has appeared in numerous galleries and national exhibitions, hangs in many private and corporate collections, and has been published on the cover of Art Life, Evergreen Living, and Mountain Country Life. Her work has also appeared in Contemporary Women Artists 1986, Hue Point’s Magazine, Les Beaux Arts Magazine, and several calendars. Most recently she was included in American Art Collector. She has been a National Vice President of the Women’s Caucus for Art, President of the New Orleans Chapter, and is involved in several other professional organizations.She continues to push herself in new directions and challenge herself artistically, traveling to paint en plein air, and working from sketches, field studies, and photos in the studio. Last year included a trip to France to paint, and she recently returned from a second trip to Tahiti. She maintains a home, studio, and gardens in Evergreen, CO, where she lives with her husband, two teenage children, four cats, and numerous elk and deer.

Michelle Torrez - In my paintings, I am trying to communicate the feeling of a place. Everywhere I look, I see flashes of color. The flashes of color come through me to represent the culture, the environment, the personality of that person and surroundings.I want to capture life and movement because life is movement and movement is life. My paint dances across the canvas, because I hope to express the sanctity of life with an powerful figure on my canvas.

E. Melinda Morrison - As an extroverted artist, Morrison has always had the unfortunate tension of drawing energy from interaction with people, while needing to nourish and express her creative soul in solitude. As a young woman, her B.A. in Fine Arts from the University of Texas at Tyler took a backseat to the corporate world for many years: advertising exec; graphic designer and art director of her own company; corporate recruiter. Not surprisingly, she was recognized in national competitions for her print design and annual reports. But shortly after her move to Denver in 1994, the satisfied extrovert began to hear from the starving artist; she says she “felt like her soul was drying up”. An oil-painting class at the Art Students’ League of Denver rained water on that desert ground. Over the next five years, Melinda studied painting at the League under the guidance of Colorado artists Kevin Weckbach and mentor, Kim English. As her passion and skill grew, so did her dream to paint full-time. After getting laid off from her job in 2003, Morrison admitted “if I don’t do it now, I’ll never do it.” She made the leap and brought years of corporate skills into the new and intricate dance of a full-time professional art career. She hasn’t looked back.Since that decision, she has shown in shows in Texas, New Mexico, Colorado and Montana gaining recognition for her figurative paintings, and is collected among collectors all across US.

Ken Valastro - Ken Valastro has been a prolific artist since age three. “I’m frequently drawn to the same subject matter that intrigued me as a child such as figurative scenes and cityscapes.” Encouraged by artistic parents who shunned television, Ken made his own entertainment by drawing, spurred on by an active imagination. “I would look at cracked paint on the wall and see objects and figures." Valastro’s brushstrokes capture the essence of impressionistic images, allowing the viewer to exercise a bit of their own imagination. His paintings offer an evocative and painterly expression of life’s visual memories.Ken Valastro teaches the Art Student’s League of Denver and gives frequent workshops. His work has been collected nationally and internationally. His paintings may be found in corporate and municipal environs.

Connie Renner - "I'm passionate about people. Painting allows me to reflect my sincere interest in the relationships people share. I consider myself successful when my painting enables another person to stop, to contemplate, to create his or her own story and perhaps fall in love with life in a new way." Connie RennerConnie is a Signature Member of the Pastel Society of America. She was awarded Best of Show at Boettcher Concert Hall and also won the Bronze Medal at the International Society of Pastel Societies' Museum Show in 1998. In 2006, 2007, and 2008 her work was featured in the Pastel Journal's "Pastel 100 Competition." She is also published in Northlight Books, The Best of Portrait Painting. Most recently, The Butler Institute of Art purchased one of her pieces for permanent display.

Jill Soukup - Jill Soukup, a Colorado native, graduated from Colorado State University in 1991 with a Bachelor of Fine Art. She initially pursued a career in graphic design. In 2002 she made the switch to painting full-time. Since then, her work continues to gain recognition as she receives awards, appears in national publications, and shows in important juried and one-woman exhibitions."I am exploring the concept of balance and beauty achieved through polarities. Love and fear, light and dark, pain and joy, creation and destruction, and so on are the yin and the yang of our existence symbolized, for me, by the mechanical differences of a painting.Each painting is part of a process—an attempt to simplify, seemingly, these convoluted struggles. Without fail, this process reaffirms for me that duality is defined not as antagonism but as symbiosis—each half dependent on the other." Jill Soukup

Carolyn Anderson - Carolyn Anderson, a nationally recognized artist, is an accomplished pastelist and oil painter. Born and raised in the Chicago area, Anderson attended school at Illinois State University. She joined the Vista program (Volunteers in Service to America) in the early 70's and was assigned to work on an Indian reservation in Montana, She eventually returned to Montana and now lives in Havre, a small community in north central Montana near the Canadian border.

Sara Ford - Ford has worked extensively with 303 magazine and DVLP Clothing, two Denver based operations. She recently packed up everything and relocated to Rincon, Puerto Rico. There she will be working on a sailboat, trying her hand at surf photography, and working on fine art. On the "roller coaster series""To me, the roller coaster series is two different things. It's a study in simple aesthetics. The innate quality of the structure pattern of light and shadow that is pleasing and interesting to the eye. We move through the composition looking at the flow of the hills and valleys against the negative space of the sky. We study the intricate graphics of the criss-crossing beams and supports.However, these images have something more to say. They are a representation of a new American landscapte. Ghost towns and hidden treasures of yesteryear. They drum up memories from childhood trips to amusement parks. The roller coaster towering over you, the fear of anticipation and the feeling of doom. The images are desolate and abandoned. They are wooden trinkets from the past, replaced by steel and video screens. They will not be good enough for the coming generations, they are nearly forgotten. They represent the end of an era."

Michelle Chrisman - " I love the visual beauty of New Mexico & the West, the desert & variety of 3 cultures. I consider myself a Contemporary Colorist & Modernist, but most of all, a visual poet. I am drawn to paint endangered places such as wilderness, historic buildings and fading cultures, in the hope of drawing public awareness by preserving them on canvas. My landscapes are painted in "en plein air." My visual music is written with the principals of impressionism, but I'm a bit of an expressionist, as painting what I feel about my subject is important, and I love for the paint to express itself in impasto movement. The abstraction of the real world is important to me."

Tim Deibler - Since Tim first saw the 1956 movie "The Mountain" as a young boy his single focus has been to paint landscapes. By age 13 he was drawing the famous Matterhorn after his parents bought him Edward Whympers book "Scrambles Amongst the Alps" which details his attempts to climb the Matterhorn, including many of his personal sketches.Tim was born and raised in Oklahoma where he studied with many of the areas most well known artists. He spent most of his evenings copying paintings from art instruction books and teaching himself how to paint from photographs. "I used to frustrate my teachers because I wouldn't copy the photo exactly. I've always used a photograph just as a starting place, not as a finishing place. Photos show detail but no emotion, I try to capture the emotion I feel and let the details fall where they may."Now an award winning artist, he has appeared in many books and publications including his own art instructional book written for North Light Book Club.

Quang Ho - Quang Ho was born on April 30, 1963, in Hue, Vietnam. He Immigrated to the United States in 1975 and is now a U.S. Citizen. His artistic interest began at the early age of three and continued through grade school, high school, art school and led him to a very exciting and successful painting profession. In 1980, at the age of 16, Quang held his first one-man-show at Tomorrows Masters Gallery in Denver Colorado. The exhibit was a smashing success for the high school sophomore. In 1982, Quang's mother was killed in a tragic auto accident, leaving him the responsibility of raising four younger brothers and a six year old sister. That same year, Quang attended the Colorado Institute of Art on a National Scholastics Art Awards Scholarship. At CIA Quang studied painting under Rene Bruhin, whom Quang credits with developing the foundation for his artistic understanding. Ho graduated from CIA in 1985 with Best Portfolio Award for the graduating class. An art dealer, Mikkel Saks, discovered his talent and promoted him in his gallery, which led to much success. He also teaches at the Denver Art Students League. He plays golf and reads philosophy and religion extensively. He is a great admirer of Andrew Wyeth.Ho’s clients include Adolph Coors Company; Upjohn, Safeway, Colorado Symphony, Chicago Symphony... Ho's illustration works have been featured in the Illustrators Annual and exhibited at the Museum of American Illustrations; and the Communication Arts Illustrations Annual during those years. Working mostly in oils and occasionally watercolor and pastels, Ho's subject matter ranges from still-life, landscapes, interiors, and dancers, to figuratives. "Subject matter is not really important to me. I can find visual excitement all around me as well as on the canvas - from a knot on a tree, graceful limp of a flower wilting, to a juxtaposition of a few simple shapes and colors...inspirations are inexhaustible."

Robert Spooner - Robert Spooner was born in Roswell, New Mexico in 1956. He received a bachelor of fine arts degree from Louisiana Tech University in 1978 and pursued a career in graphic design. It was not until 1998 that he developed an interest in oil painting after having taken it up as a creative antidote to the structured advertising world where he was working as a designer and illustrator. He became further motivated to continue on this path of expression when he enrolled in painting classes at the Denver Art Students League and studied with noted painters Kim English and Quang Ho.The dimensions of his canvas are determined by the story needing to be told. Robert works from large shapes in a scene to the small, all the time keeping his values in check. Arriving at the focal point, which in many cases may be a face, he slows down to spend more time on what he considers to be the heart of the painting or story.Robert explains that his art is not about any one approach but it is about developing as an artist by exploring various visual approaches. The discoveries he makes along the way are what fuel his desire to be an artist.

Tate Hamilton - Taylor Hamilton (Tate) comes from a music and art background. He has been a member of the Art Students League of Denver (ASLD) for many years. I have been painting for many years and enjoy painting in a 'painterly' style. To create my style I use the general 'painterly' philosophy, large shapes which begin with my darkest darks and whittle them down into smaller lighter shapes. I generally only use a #12 brush and get big thick brushstrokes. I can paint just about any subject and prefer painting cityscapes. No hype just fun paintings!
