Susan Slomski

My love for oil painting incorporates my love for the landscape, for color, light and place.

Susan began studying oil painting in high school. Her first large scale still-life won The Golden Key Award from the Boston Globe. A portfolio review of her work won the Blue Ribbon from the Massachusetts College of Art. Susan went on to study fine art, majoring in Fine Art and oil painting at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, NY. There she studied with artists Jeff Elgin and Pat Cauley and minored in Art History. In the late 90’s Susan returned to Worcester, MA for a brief period and studied with professional artist and master color theorist Bill Griffiths at the Worcester Art Museum. Her work with Bill Griffiths strengthened her love for color and color theory which she employs in every piece.

Born and raised in Massachusetts, Susan moved to New Mexico following her Graduate Degree from Lesley College in the early 1990’s to be immersed in the landscape that inspires her and draws her in. In 1999 her work took her to Colorado where the light and landscape continue to shape her work. Susan is a member of the Heritage Fine Arts Guild and a former juried member of the Littleton Artist Guild, both in Littleton, Colorado, where she exhibits work locally.

"In the Company of Giants'An early morning hike in Zion National Park afforded me this view of high canyon walls with the deep shadows of neighboring cliff, Angels Landing. This is the second exploration of this type of composition, something large and dominant in the foreground with a clear, uninhibited blue sky, a variation from compositions that explore the great distances of the west. This painting is created with under painting that I employ in all of my works. Color theory Tetradic Rectangle Triad III is the color palette for this painting. Oil on Canvas 24 x 36 $4000

Janice Wright

Originally from Western Canada, Janice Wright now calls Arvada, Colorado her home. A Visual Communications graduate from the Alberta College of Art of Canada, Wright worked as a graphic designer for over fifteen years. A one year residence in Europe provided her the opportunity to see paintings that previously she had only seen in art history books. Profoundly moved by the experience, she stopped producing commercial art and began to paint in earnest. Influenced by the dynamic brush strokes of Van Gogh, and the American Expressionists Franz Kline and Robert Motherwell, she works in acrylic. An avid hiker and photographer, she draws upon the landscape around her for subject matter and inspiration. Her work has been exhibited in multiple group and solo shows in Canada and the US and she has won much acclaim for her work.

Artist Statement   

I am inspired by the rhythm that I see in nature. At first glance, elements of nature can seem random or chaotic in their appearance or placement. A forest may contain trees of many shapes and sizes, clumped together in staggered groups. But with closer examination, it becomes apparent that there is nothing random about the shape, size or placement of the trees. Nature is a master planner; all things follow their own unique pattern, coexisting harmoniously with all other elements in the universe.

When I paint I strive to paint the way nature does, with a sense of rhythm that is present in every brushstroke. Like a tightrope walker on a wire, I try to balance the elements of shape and color, size and weight, texture and transparency. When I achieve harmony or balance, the individual parts form a synergy which makes the piece feel whole.

Scot Fitzgerald


Growing up in rural Colorado, Scot Fitzgerald spent countless hours out enjoying the wonders of the natural world.  His fascination with rocks actually led him to a career in chemistry.  His professional life has been as an analytical chemist specializing in radiochemistry in the Pacific Northwest, however his heart has remained solidly in the southwest. Over the years Scot has enjoyed woodworking of all kinds and lapidary work (using stones to make jewelry).  These hobbies naturally progressed to doing stone inlays in wood turnings which perfectly blends his two loves.  Part of the process that Scot appreciates is hiking to find and harvest the wonderful materials he uses.  Examples of these include fallen trees and gem stones that he can dig for himself.  Scot then combines his abilities of perfection in quality with creativity in design.  Natural voids in the wood are filled with stone precisely fitted to their individual openings and each bowl receives a minimum of 20 hand rubbed coats of finish.  Like his father Richard Fitzgerald (well known and award winning wood turner), Scot’s designs reflect the southwest Anasazi pottery and culture.  Although he prefers to use material that he can harvest in person, he also uses a variety of exotic wood and stone.  Scot has long done custom work for friends and family, but now that his father has retired, he is offering his talents to the public.

Scots bowls are a labor of love that demands time and attention to detail. Each one has over 20 coats of hand rubbed finish and sanding between coats.
