Artists of Baca County
The art in Baca County often depicts scenes in the area, but not always. We like to encourage young artists to show their work at our local art shows and at the Baca County fair. The local Springfield art group has an art show in the Fall in conjunction with the Equinox Festival and artists from Walsh sponsor a show around the time of harvest. Here are samples of the artwork of some of our local artists.
The Studio B Gallery has some work displayed at the Treasure Chest Mall on Main Street, Springfield Colorado. The display features Art and Photography by Gloria Jean and Darla Tobey and Genealogy index Books . (published and compiled by Valorie Millican) The "B" in Studio B stands for William Bougquereau, one of the best or the old master artists.
Display booth, also located in the Treasure Chest Mall is pictured below. It features work from local artists in many different mediums and subjects. Included are oils, watercolor, graphics, china painting, acrylics, photography, decorative glassware, pottery, weaving, and both clay and metal sculpture. Visit the Treasure Chest Mall for loads of antiques, collectable's, and art.
