Inside the Crabtree Gallery Welcome to my Gallery located just east of Eagle, Colorado on Highway 6 about 30 miles west of Vail, Colorado. I print most of my photos in my digital lab using Epsom Printers and archival inks and mostly archival cotton rag papers. Adobe Photoshop software is amazing in that you can correct your image exactly like you want overcoming the limitations of the cameras ability to see just as our eyes do. I am able to have total control of my prints and there quality. I also have a frame shop just steps away from my gallery where I can design and frame my work using the many and varied materials available. This enables me to be a one stop shopping experience, something that makes customers happy and gives them the choice to help custom design their purchases to better fit the decor of their homes or offices. Another advantage is that I live on property also right on the Eagle River in a cabin circa 1870's that I remodeled. My gallery is also a cabin circa 1900's remodeled and designed to best show my work. Please come visit if you happen to be in the Vail or Aspen area. I can even arrange for transportation to and from my gallery if that is needed. I have over one hundred framed pieces displayed and a stock of thousands of other images I can custom print. Thank you for visiting my studio.

"Three Amigos" gracing the fireplace of a Cordillera home near Edwards, Colorado This is an example of my work gracing the decor of this beautiful home on a sprawling ranch in Colorado with magnificent mountain views. The photo is 40" x 50" mounted on aluminum with a custom barnwood frame. I have sold this same image simply mounted on the aluminum panel with a full bleed. A more contemporary feel if you like that style of decor.

"Misty Morn" This photo was taken right off of I-70 just east of Frisco, Colorado. It is a picture of Lake Dillon with Mt. Baldy and Gijeau Peak in the backround.
