Who we are
Our creative collaboration began in early 2021 in the midst of the pandemic, when Wayne and I invited our longtime friend, artist George Sánchez, into our newly-acquired vacant store front in the heart of historic downtown Cañon City. We dreamed of a vibrant small business that would bring contribute to the revitalization of Main Street. We imagined a place with beautiful art and very special handmade items created right here. In that conversation, our fine art gallery was born. True, we had zero experience in the art world. But George had been immersed in art his whole life as a painter, instructor and curator. When he offered to help, we knew we could do it. We started brainstorming ways to combine a friendly Cañon City-style gallery with a curated selection of fine jewelry, artisanal furnishings and artful gifts. And amazingly, things started falling into place. Before we knew it, the doors were open in September and we had sold our first painting! Our name has personal significance for me. My dad wanted to name me Medora, after his favorite place, friendly Medora, ND. Dad loved the independent spirit of the pioneers and the rugged beauty of the west.
