Plein Air Painters in Telluride

Thirty artists have descended on Telluride in the last few days as part of the seventh annual Telluride Plein Air. Artists spend the week in various spots around the Telluride area; mostly right on Main Street, and then their works of art are showcased in the Artist Choice Gala Premier/Silent Auction at the Sheridan Opera House on Friday night from 5 to 8 p.m. Their paintings will then be shown and available to the public for sale beginning Saturday morning.
