Marion Dutton’s art is as inspiring as she is. At our upcoming Open House, you’ll be able to see her original Winter Creek — a 2023 acrylic landscape that captures the calm beauty of a snowy stream. Marion’s warmth and creativity shine through not only her paintings but also her teaching with MazArt Academy . Explore Winter Creek and other originals like Golden Meadow, Gentle Eyes, and Golden Winter Whispers in person.

Join us for the Blakely Art Collection Open House on Saturday, October 25th, 10 a.m.–5 p.m. in Arvada, Colorado! Explore original paintings including Guardian of the Green, The Garden’s Offering, and Golden Passage. Meet the artist, enjoy light refreshments, and browse one-of-a-kind works in a relaxed setting. Free parking is available. Don’t miss this chance to spend a fall day surrounded by inspiring art.
