My First STUDIO SALE

Welcome to a special sale of my work dating back to the 1980s.

Over the years my work has ranged widely in subject matter and technique, but at its heart is the landscape, pictorial composition, intuitiveness, lyricism, and embracing the moment. Locations range from the Appalachian Mountains to the American West, Egypt, Cambodia, and Venice. Technological advances during my years of curatorial/arts administration have influenced how my work has evolved. The early color images were film-based and initially processed and printed by a lab. Digital technology enabled me to individualize image-making processes in my studio. Collaborations with other women artists—initially with photographer Jennifer Anne Tucker in Pennsylvania to more recently with artist Wendy Lemen Bredehoft and dancer/choreographer Margaret Wilson (Sequencing Through Time and Place)—have broadened my creative practice. In all cases, my commitment to composing at the time of exposure begins the process of bringing images to life through the final print.

As I now work on a solo exhibition of my current View from Home series at the O’Sullivan Art Gallery at Regis University (March 2022), I seek good homes for the work available below to be able to fully realize this upcoming exhibition. Please look, enjoy, and consider adding to your collection or gifting to others as the holiday season approaches.

I am offering a 20% discount for purchases made through November 30, 2021.

The following links will take you to the Viewing Rooms. Please INQUIRE if you have questions or if you are ready to make a purchase. I am happy to deliver work in Laramie. Shipping charges outside Laramie will be included in your invoice.

Carissa Mine Exhibition Opens in Leadville, CO

Sequencing Through Time and Place: The Carissa Mine opened to the public on February 8, 2019 at the National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum in Leadville, CO. The exhibit runs through September 2019.

Sequencing Through Time and Place: The Carissa Mine presents a contemporary response to place through works that explore the physical, historical, and cultural aspects of the historic Carissa Mine utilizing photography, mixed media, video and performance. As the first contemporary response to the mine, its history, architecture, and specialness of place, a new perspective on mining culture and industry is presented that pays homage to its past and celebrates its history.

Wendy Lemen Bredehoft, Susan Moldenhauer, and Margaret Wilson – mixed media artist, photographer, and dancer – have been working together under the name Sequencing since 2009. Their work explores the fundamentals of the creative process and how artists perceive, respond to and convey place through different expressive lenses. They have worked side by side in Wyoming, London, Venice, and the Carissa Mine at the South Pass City Historical Site in Central Wyoming.

Sequencing Through Time and Place: The Carissa Mine has been funded in part by the National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum, and the development of the work was sponsored by the Friends of South Pass City and the Wyoming Arts Council through the Wyoming State Legislature and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Touchstone Laramie 2018

I was pleased to exhibit my work in the 6th Annual Biennial Touchstone Laramie 2018. One of the expectations of this local artist event is that new work not previously seen in Laramie be presented. Work from Sequencing Through Time and Place: The Carissa Mine that was on view in the Lander Art Center will be presented by myself, artist Wendy Bredehoft, and dancer Margaret Wilson. It focused on aspects of the mine that include industry and man, from tools and equipment to the process of transforming ore into gold.

In addition, I shared a selection of my two new portfolios, Becoming a Memory: The Clark Street Bridge and The Most Beautiful Tornado. Becoming a Memory captured Laramie’s Clark Street Bridge which now remains only as a memory of our community’s history. The Most Beautiful Tornado was a rare category 3 tornado that moved across the plains north of Laramie.
