Veronica Franklin
Maybe its the high dosage of sunshine I get here in Colorado that allows me to be a painter, avid art scene follower and mother of two. I received a Bachelor's of Fine Art from University of Colorado at Denver, freshly graduated in May of 2008 summa cum laude and with the Outstanding Senior award. While attending classes I interned at the Denver Art Museum, assisting the Curator and Assistant Curator in current projects including artist research. I also coordinated student art shows and promoted student critiques.
My personal passion for art ranges from the sublimely realist to the intensely abstract and even garish outsider art. I have shown my own artwork in and around Denver, am represented Ugallery.com and show with the exclusive artist collective Group 3759. I love to discuss art and the theory of art. To me, art is evidence of the human soul.
