Excitement of Open House
December 10th, 2008 by Andy MarquezI get more and more excited as we approach this year’s Holiday Open House. With a tough economy hanging over us, I feel that we have been able to offer a wide range of gift items like never before.
My new image, “The Magic of Yellow”, will be shown at the gallery for the first time. I believe this is one of my better Colorado shots, taken on Kebler Pass, near Crested Butte. I had spent the previous evening in Ridgway, attempting another fall image of Mt. Sneffels, but to my disappointment there
was no light, shining through the existing clouds. Neither was the next morning’s sunrise worth a shot. The plan was to spend the next evening shooting a Mt.Crested Butte sunset. So I drove north through Paonia and headed across Kebler Pass. That’s when I came across this view. The aspens were perfect, and the 2 P.M. light was as good as sunset. What grabbed me the most was the spectacular clouds. We’ll have this shot on canvas and on board available for Holiday gifts.
We’re also giving away free Bubble Lady books for you to give to a child, or a poster. FYI, it rained the entire time I was in Crested Butte, later that afternoon. If you purchase from us at this open house your name will be entered into a drawing to win a $200 gift certificate to be used in January. We have five of our books available “Last Signs of the Frontier”, “Early Signs of Enchantment (New Mexico), the Blue Bubble Lady, “Colorado: A Breath Away From Heaven” and the beautiful new coffee table book “Dreams That Last Forever”. And then we have the $20 gift, plaques with quotes from the Breath Away book. We still have holiday cards,” The Three Wisemen” and “Roxborough Winter”. And on top of all of this my friend Noel Cunningham is serving h’ordeurves from his incredible restaurant “Strings”. Happy holidays to all, please join us ! Andy
