For seven years I had a retail jewelry store and gallery in Pinedale, Wyoming. It was open from 2010 to 2016 and was devoted to contemporary artists and my own jewelry. I used the walls to exhibit present-day and nontraditional artwork made by regional artists. A wide range of media including paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, tapestries and silkscreen prints were shown.
Isabel Jewelry & Gallery brought artists’ inspirations to Sublette County and recognized the importance of art in the general consciousness. The gallery aspired to introduce thoughtful art forms and subjects. Artists provide a rare view of the world and can stimulate emotion, inspiration, and memories in the viewers’ minds.
At the end of 2016, I decided to close the gallery/store project so that I could focus on my jewelry and art making. To see my artwork please visit: www.isabelrucker.com Please scroll down to see the past exhibiting artists and find their website links.
