Winter Art Walk

On the evening of November 14th in Aurora, Colorado, just east of Denver, the East End Arts District held its first Winter Art Walk. Faithful art lovers braved the cold night to experience something new. Greymatters Arts Co-op participated in the Winter Art Walk along with a growing collection of artist studios and galleries that have twinkled into existence in this previously forgotten area. A registered non-profit business, Greymatters Arts Co-op is run by Theresa Anderson, Carol Browning and Karen Roehl, three painters, who generously supplied sight seers with hot cider, snacks and visual refreshment.

Artists of Greymatters

Theresa Anderson paints large, mural sized compositions that are based off of collages made from photographs. She also forms prop-like objects used in her personal art performances and installations. Carol Browning produces dreamy, abstract paintings that reference landscapes. Browning’s colors are cheerful and yet tranquil with special attention paid to the final texture. Karen Roehl also creates abstract paintings which extract the most out of a limited palette, usually three major colors, filling a rectangle with layers of emotion and movement.

This trio of artists has been located at their Iola Street studio for a little over half a year. They have watched the surrounding arts district expanding, the beginnings of a healthy crop of art spaces. The studio building consists of a main entry into a commons area which includes a counter, sink and a discreet bathroom in the back. Two large work spaces, one on either side of the commons area, permit the three artists plenty of room to generate their work. Their building has ample square footage and best of all, according to Anderson, rent is cheap. Perhaps this is what fuels the arrival of new artists and galleries to this area.
