We’re thrilled to debut our Fall Collection with a featured solo show by one of Colorado Springs’ most cherished artists:
🎉 Featured Artist: Tish Lacy Reed
🖼️ “Uptown Funk, Downtown Chic”
“My new series of abstract oil and cold wax paintings with elements of collage lives where grit meets elegance. Layers of texture, bold movement, and luminous surfaces explore that edge between raw urban energy and refined sophistication.” —Tish
Known for her textured, expressive work and luminous surfaces, Tish Lacy Reed invites viewers into bold visual landscapes that balance mystery, movement, and emotion. Drawing inspiration from her recent travels to the Galápagos Islands with her husband Ray, her newest body of work marks a vibrant evolution of her unmistakable style.
