When starting down his path, BenJamin was given the words from another artist, "make what you like" - from those words Ben Jamin has found that the warm energy we all feel in great art comes from the artists who truly love what they create. Ben creates his work using a plasma torch to create relief in thick steel plate. He then refines and polishes each piece before adding some color by way of chemical reaction, or patina. Ben has been refining his techniques for almost 15 years, and the quality of his patinas and finishes reveal just that. Be sure to take a look at his web site www.BJaminCustoms.com

Hand cut and stitched custom made leather goods for home and travel. From Jordan "As the owner and craftsman of Product 127 nothing is more important to me than ensuring that every client & every product receives the attention it deserves. This means that nothing I craft, whether a creation of my own, or a commission from a client, leaves my shop unless it meets my high standards for quality and attention to detail."

Alexi’s father was the artistic soul of the family, and perhaps it is through his father's legacy that abstract artwork resonates with Alexi. Throughout Alexi’s lifetime, art and drawing served as a personal meditative pursuit, bringing solace and joy through artistic creations.
Today, Alexi is deeply passionate about his craft. Years of personal growth and creative exploration have honed his unique style, which stands confidently on its own. Alexi, more than anything, believes in the enduring strength and longevity of his work.

Self-taught “outsider” artist. I use mainly oil and acrylic paint to create dream-like landscapes. Heavily influenced by the surreal and abstract paintings of Van Gogh and easy going “modern” style of Bob Ross.
Psychedelia, the unknown, and the obscure. A firm believer in color above form. I hope I can provide you with a painting that brings joy and a quick escape from reality with a glance.

Mike David's photography is a celebration of the world's diverse beauty. His photography is shot in 6x7cm film format. The images are printed on the highest quality photographic paper, displayed with acid-free mattes and custom framed using top-of-the-line materials.

Bridget carefully crafts both wheel-thrown and hand-built stoneware ceramics at her home studio in Loveland, CO. She then mixes multiple glaze combinations to create texture and movement in the pieces. The decorative pieces are then embellished with charms, wire, and/or glass beads to elevate her pottery.

Branden's portfolio is made up of landscape images from across the world. The primary materials used for display are traditional prints, canvas prints, and aluminum metal prints. The artist's goal is to transport viewers to special places through the work.

Tina Hoffer is a unique woodworker by blending two of natures alluring elements; wood and stone. Tina creates functional, culinary accessories with her Cutting Boards, Gathering Boards, Serving Platters and Dipping Trays that will elevate your daily or special occasions.
Tina meticulously searches through arborists’ wood lots looking for the perfectly flawed, cracked and knot filled hardwoods that other woodworkers pass by because of these deficits. She chooses smaller pieces of wood that will be enhanced with Stone like turquoise, lapis, malachite or chrysocolla, and inlays these into the cracks and voids. She follows the Kintsugi method of Japanese art , where broken and fractured pottery is mended with gold or silver dust, there by restoring the fragments to a functional and more beautiful piece.

Dai Salwen is an artist and creator guide based in the desert mountain Southwest who, after a childhood exploring art through everything from drawing to melting colored wax on rocks, developed a practice rooted in honoring wildness and the natural world.

“Mixed Media Outstanding Innovator“ award winner!
Marilyn's art is reverse painting on acrylics. Yep, she paints in reverse from the most forward elements of the piece to the furthest back. This unique approach garnered Marilyn our winner from ColoradoArtWeekend.com
You have to see it in person to truly appreciate its magic. Her work is inspired by the natural beauty that surrounds her home at the base of the Mt. Evans wilderness area in Idaho Springs, Colorado. Painting in a modern impressionist style, Marilyn's art is infused with brilliant light and color. Her use of textured, bold brush strokes magnifies the vivid impressionist style.
