Jim Biggers celebrates 25 years with the Governor's Art Show

5/24/2016

The Colorado Governor's Art Show is celebrating its 25th year and Columbine Gallery wishes to acknowledge the fact that our artist James Biggers has been included in all 25 years of the annual juried exhibition demonstrating great consistency in creating strong, notable artwork. If you have not already, it's time to familiarize yourself with this great Colorado artist and add his work to your fine art collection.

Lake Victoria Fishing Village by James Biggers
James Biggers describes his style of work as “painterly realism,” an impressionistic rather than hyper-realistic take on the landscape genre—a vision he employs whether he’s depicting Wyoming’s Wind River or boats docked in an Italian harbor. What often catches his creative eye and inspires him to paint a scene is the overall design. “The abstract shapes have to be just right,” he says. But even more importantly, Biggers believes that as an artist he must put something of himself into his work. “Design and the subject may attract people to your painting, but heart is what keeps them there,” he says. His work is published in the “Art of the National Parks” and “Landscapes of Colorado” books, as well as Southwest Art and other magazines. ​
​Columbine Gallery is proud to have 11 of our represented artists in the Governor's Art Show this year. We encourage you to see its final week at the Loveland Museum (thru May 29th); plus stop by Columbine Gallery for more art appreciation and collecting.
