Description
As the 2nd creation of my shaken-up mountain town, “CB Eve” holds a very special place in the evolution of my work. I titled it as a playful nod to the night before Christmas, invoking that crisp, magical anticipation of a snowy holiday.
In this piece, I really leaned into changing how the buildings looked while keeping their historic souls completely recognizable. The canvas is a rich mosaic packed with local Easter eggs. You’ll spot our “beloved” post office complete with the 81224 zip code, a cozy local bar and hangout spot, and festive wreaths giving the street a warm holiday vibe.
I even put the tricycle that is perched on the the rooftop bicycle shop. They knocked it out of the park on that one! Along with the hidden “CB” tucked away into the intricate, swirling details. Framed by a majestic, snow-packed peak rising into the golden sky, this painting is my joyful, deeply personal love letter to winter in our community.
