Paintings hung in a library

The Clearview Library District has opened a new art exhibit in the Quiet Space gallery at the Windsor Library. This first exhibit of 2026 includes a variety of mediums–including pastel, acrylic, watercolor, pencil, and photography–and highlights the amazing work of four local artists with a diversity of styles and experience.

Anna Peen’s Japanese watercolor and acrylic paintings reflect her personal connection to place, nature, and everyday moments of calm, and are influenced by her Eastern and Asian background. Amber Joy’s variety of pieces mirror the joy art brings to her life and her goal to spread that joy to others through her work. Janet Patton’s vibrant pastels demonstrate her perspective as a musician–conveying a form of harmonic experimentation and showcasing her extemporaneous techniques. Dr. Carson’s photos highlight her experience as a local veterinarian and the joy she takes in capturing special memories. 

The Quiet Space gallery exhibit is free to the public and will remain on display during regular Windsor Library hours through March 2026. Note: During the Pikes Peak Meeting Room renovation, the Quiet Space is being used for library programming. The gallery remains open to adult patrons when programs are not in session. 

Local artists interested in being featured in a future gallery installation are encouraged to complete the public art submission form and email it to courtney@clearviewlibrary.org, or pick up a printed copy at the front desk.
