About the Artist

Colleen Reynolds is a versatile painter who marvels in capturing the soul of the every day, whether working with sketchbook and pencil or brush and canvas. Her work reflects many years of taking notice of all things living such as botanicals and societal rituals. Colleen’s representational paintings have a loose and textural quality, full of contrast and vibrant color. Her characteristic subject cropping grasps the viewers’ attention and draws them in to study the message or story behind the work. Reynolds works in virtually every painting and drawing medium, though painting in watercolor, oil and acrylic captures her attention most often.

Throughout her working years, Colleen’s overriding interest has been art. She has accrued over 200 hours in fine art studies, from college and private masters. Reynolds paints and conducts classes out her private studio. She has joined artist cooperatives and participated in numerous artist exhibitions, fairs and shows. Colleen's art is currently represented by the Patrick Moore Gallery and the Framing Establishment in Salt Lake City, UT.

Colleen does business as an artist and writer through her company, CRB Endeavors. She has a Masters degree in Education and Bachelors degrees in Fine Art and Applied Mathematics. In previous lives, Colleen completed a 20-year U.S. Navy career and taught corporate, college and university courses.
