We're looking forward to another wonderful new season at Gardner Colby in 2009. We've added several new artists:

Timothy Horn brings his colorful, fanciful "portraits" of vintage cars and trucks of the 50's , capturing their unique "personalities". He also paints equally intriguing figurative work. Tim was recently featured in the July issue of American Art Collector magazine.

Anna Youngers, from South Dakota, is featured in the September issue of Southwest Art in their "21 Under 31" article focusing on emerging artists/artists to watch. Anna's beautiful portraits and still life work will wow you.

Susan Lyon, also a figurative artist, travels the world with her husband, also a painter, capturing the colorful pageantry of people doing everyday things, whether it be a young African woman bringing produce to a Massai market, or women from India in their beautiful saris and shawls.

Paul Rafferty's rich, colorful seascapes and beach scenes, many painted in the South of France where he resides part time, can let you feel the warmth of the sun on your back.

Stan Moeller will bring his unique brand of figurative work to Gardner Colby Gallery, adding to our exceptional collection of living American artists.

Our SHOW SCHEDULE for 2009 is shaping up too:
