Latest News from Steve Quiller

Late Light Along the Ridge TrailIn honor of the Burchfield-Pennyʼs 50th Anniversary Stephen Quiller has been invited to lecture, demonstrate and exhibit his work in Buffalo, N. Y.

Charles Burchfield (1893- 1967) was an American Watercolor Master who lived the majority of his adult life in Buffalo, N.Y. His paintings evoke an energy, sounds, wind and light that go beyond most representational painting. Art collector Rand Penny helped fund the Burchfield Center that was housed on the second floor of an old brick building on the Buffalo State College campus. Today the museum is a beautiful multi-million dollar facility that is devoted to Charles Burchfieldʼs and other regional art. Charles Burchfield is one of Mr. Quillerʼs painting heros and is honored to participate in the years events.

Working Sketches & Color Foundation: 4UR Ranch, Creede, Colorado

This venue is simply the best I have ever experienced. The accommodations, food and care that the staff gives is incredible! This workshop combines both the outdoor and studio painting experience. We will go to beautiful mountain locations and make what I call "working sketches." These are not finished drawings but informational notes of the subject, both black and white and color studies. We will take this work back to the studio and use the studies for reference to develop finished works. In the studio emphasis will be given to the color foundation. We will begin with a limited palette and work with value and intensity. Throughout the week we will build to the more complex. Marta and I will host a Friday evening dinner at our home and a tour of my studio.
