Exploring Ute Culture

This painting resulted from a connection made to the Elk Creek Ranch area and a client question about the Ute tribe in the Meeker area. A reading of the history of the area reveals the pride of the Utes who were fisherman and hunters and horsemen. The painting tells that story of pride in life lived in the area. The painting is titled "I am...". It is part of the Connection to Ancestors Series."I am..." 30"x30"/oil on canvas.

Happy Holidays in Downtown Louisville

A short walk north of Armantrout Studio is Old Town Louisville's Main Street. Louisville, Colorado began as a mining and farming community. Thanks to city leaders, founding families, and newcomers, Louisville has grown into an award winning small town with rich Historic preservation. See the painting "Red Desert Mustangs", framed in a Peruvian leather frame by Janet Russell, at CFA Gallery, 916 Main Street in the Louisville Arts District. www.louisvilleartsdistrict.com
