2001 was Colette’s twentieth anniversary as a full-time artist
since graduating from the University of Northern Colorado with a
BA in Fine Art. Since that time, Colette has worked as a
graphic designer in Colorado and New York, receiving an MBA from
the University of Long Island, and has been as illustrator,
artist, framer, writer, teacher, publisher, sculptor, gallery
owner, festival organizer, calligrapher, community leader and
business woman.
Colette enjoys traveling and plein-aire painting. “It is
my intention to design paintings that make the viewer take
notice of something otherwise overlooked, convey a mood, or
communicate feeling. This is achieved through dramatic use of
light and shadow, heightened color, and expressive brushwork.” |
