“Shift in Perspective” – Solo Exhibitions by Paula Peacock & Suzanne Frazier
“Shift in Perspective” displays each artist’s navigation towards spiritual evolution starting with Paula Peacock’s paintings and mixed media sculptures arising out of her grief on the death of her son, then shifting to paintings by Suzanne Frazier exploring the opening of consciousness in the morning light. The Main Gallery is divided to give a dedicated space for each artist to display an entire body of work.
“Altered Soul” – Solo Exhibition by Paula Peacock
“Altered Soul”, a solo exhibition by Paula Peacock, displays a visual journal of an artists' lonely passage through grief, heartache, and depression in search for peace after the death of her son. Realizing that each painting takes her closer towards healing, she looks deep within herself and learns that each moment is a lesson in growth and love. She shares her awareness that spiritual evolution arrives with a higher understanding of why we are here and why we leave.
Using her own life's experiences as her source of inspiration, Paula Peacock portrays ordinary objects with emotion, a touch of elegance, and a provocative glow with inter-plays of light. Working primarily in oils, in the manner of realism, her work reflects a combination of layered symbolism in the style of the classical table top still life involving subject matters with results that are thought provoking yet peaceful to the eye and mind.
The paintings and mix media sculptures displayed in this exhibit have won numerous awards including First Place in the 'All Colorado' exhibit in Littleton. She has exhibited in art museums and galleries in the US and her work can be found in many collections throughout the US, Canada, Italy, Denmark, and England.

“Spirit Light” – Solo Exhibition by Suzanne Frazier
For Suzanne Frazier, art is a vehicle for exploring the exterior and interior landscape of our existence on this planet. Each painting reflects her emotional response to the morning light that offers up spiritual solace and peace. Through this work, Suzanne explores the inspiration of the morning light to provide a meditative experience towards spiritual evolution.
Comprised of twelve oil paintings, Suzanne’s body of work explores a contemplative view of the Colorado landscape. Each painting lives in its own place and time, free from a particular association to a specific landscape. She shares her contemplation inviting the viewer to a new way of seeing.
Suzanne Frazier combines a BFA degree in Studio Arts from the University of Colorado with a BA degree in Philosophy from Lake Erie College to create a philosophical/meditative approach to art making. In 2015, Suzanne published the book, Contemplative Art describing her meditative painting process and definition for contemplative art. Her work is in private collections in the United States, Canada, Japan and Europe. Her work can be viewed at https://suzannefrazierartist.com
