Gregory Mayse: Artist of the American West
Being surrounded by the majestic landscapes, wildlife and western culture of the Rocky Mountains has had a tremendous influence on the life and art of Gregory Mayse. Gregory is the owner of Wolf River Studio in Fort Collins, Colorado. He has always been attracted to realism in art and it is reflected in his painting style. His works are showcased in storytelling pieces that could be about a moment in the day of a cowboy, Native American or mountain man. They can also capture the energy of a wild mustang racing across the landscape. For the past 20 years, he has loved living in northern Colorado. Gregory has applied his skills as a professional photographer, painter, graphic designer, writer, and illustrator to a well-rounded 35 year creative career. For the past several years, Gregory has spent time traveling to photograph cowboys, Native Americans, ranchers, period reenactors and models dressed in 1800's clothing and gear replicating the Old West. He uses these as reference images for his paintings. His works hang in the homes of collectors across the country. They have been juried into national fine art shows and used for covers of publications. Primarily a self-taught artist, some of his inspirations and influences have been in the works of Frederic Remington, Charles Russell, John Seerey-Lester, Howard Terpning, Carl Rungius and Bill Hughes. In recent years Gregory has studied with Dave Santillanes, Heather Coen, Kate Dardine and Jeanne Mackenzie. … [Read More...]

Lindsay Ternes
In My Words: I'm a telemark skier, backpacker, trail runner, and animal lover. Playing outside is where I'm happiest, and my creativity soars in sunshine. Long before I studied art in the mountains of Aix-en-Provence, France, I fell madly in love with painting in nature. As a mother of two young girls, my joyous return to plein air is heightened by the opportunity to share the value of the arts and the beauty of the outdoors with my growing family. When I hike my easel around the trails near our home in Boulder and beyond, I quickly work to capture the little story in the scenes I discover. I'm lucky to call this stunning location home, and feel compelled to share the light and curves of this amazing place with eyes near and far. Bio: Lindsay Jane Ternes is an award-winning artist based in Boulder, Colorado. Born in Billings, Montana and raised in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Lindsay's passion for art was apparent from a young age and never waned. At the University of Denver she majored in Marketing and Studio Art to equip herself for a future in fine art. While there Lindsay focused on figure painting, later rediscovering her love for landscape painting while studying at The Marchutz School of Fine Arts in Aix-en-Provence. Her time in Southern France greatly influences her scene selection and light interpretation today. After years away from a serious studio discipline, Lindsay committed herself to becoming a professional artist while raising her young children. She typically works on location, painting “en plein air,” in and around her home in Boulder, Colorado, but you'll also find her painting in Glacier National Park each summer. Lindsay's work can be found at Spirits in the Wind Gallery in Golden, Colorado, as well as Frame of Reference Fine Art in Whitefish, Montana. … [Read More...]
