Jen Peterson, our May Guest Artist, has been painting with oils for over 35 years. Since moving to Moab in 2000, she has become fascinated with the ever-changing light and texture of the desert landscapes as well as those in the Colorado Rocky Mountains and is continually trying to capture their beauty. Jen has had the opportunity to paint with and learn from several famous Utah artists where she has learned and explored many different techniques and continues to grow and expand as an artist.

Crystal Honour, this month's featured gallery artist, has lived in Moab most of her life, and says she has always been an art enthusiast, turning to the arts for fun, social contact, or stress relief. A few years ago her hobbies became her physical and mental lifeline, getting her through health issues and multiple surgeries. She says, "Because of this, I was able to revisit my passion of wire wrapping with stones and put my energy into my jewelry. The more I created the more I discovered my style. Smaller gage wire and petite stones help to create the delicate and dainty style I aim for in my jewelry."
