As time marches forward, many relics of the past are left behind, and some are best forgotten – like pre-novacaine dentistry. Some things, however, are symbols of the elegance of a bygone age.

I am honored and pleased to welcome Sajali Delong. She shares her history better than I ever could! Hey there, thanks for the welcome to AboutBoulder.com! I’m excited to share a bit about my journey with you. Originally from Germany, I found my way to Boulder two years ago, and it’s been quite an experience! […]

Again I headed to RMNP (Rocky Mountain National Park). I had to make it through the entry gates at Estes Park before 9 AM, lacking a timed entry ticket. Entry before 9 AM meant flashing my Golden Eagle pass and driver’s license and no more. I made it with at least 5-10 minutes to spare. […]

One of the few things we share is a preference for using colors “directly from the tube.” His paintings suggest that he preferred using colors as they were made, applying them to canvas without a great deal of blending. While I am hesitant to call […]

The displays of talent went on for blocks and blocks! Next year I will plan on more than one visit. The show runs for three days. Krysteen Waszak has an impressionist style that is riveting. The saturated colors, great composition, and powerful presentation of the subjects had me staring at the paintings in admiration and […]
