COLLECTOR'S FOCUS
WOMEN ARTISTSplace has a story to tell. One just needed
to look beyond the obvious. It’s that ‘je ne
sais quoi’ about a person or a place that
draws me to paint it. Can everyone see
what I see or maybe they see something
completely different? No matter what, the
‘colorful’ story is there to be understood,
interpreted and told.”
Susan Firestone has been painting
landscapes in Crested Butte, Colorado, for
many years. “As I was painting, cattle wouldsurround me and I realized how good
they looked in the landscape, so I started
including them in my paintings,” she says.
One such work is Steers in the Road, which
shows cattle lined up along the edge of a
grassy area.
“While going through a box of old black-
and-white family photos I was inspired
by their uniqueness in today’s world of
digital/colored photos,” says artist Lorraine
Kovenz Bushek. “These old photos arerelics of the past and I hope to preserve
them for the future generations to enjoy.”
One of her newest works in the theme is
Markham Kindergarten 1953, Morning
Class, depicting the smiling faces of
yesteryear.
“Art is an asset that includes a story,”
says artist Chantel Lynn Barber, while
Clint Watson, founder and CEO at
BoldBrush, describes her portrait and
figurative work as refreshing, revealing andFEATURED
