There is an undeniable magic to the word “Aspen.” It carries a natural air of super-chic coolness, creating a positive stigma where you just know everything is going to be better, brighter, and more refined simply because of the zip code. Often called the "Rodeo Drive of Colorado," downtown Aspen is a high-altitude playground where historic red-brick charm meets world-class luxury along the iconic Main Street. The streets here act as a vibrant “kaleidoscope of delights.” You can spend a sun-drenched afternoon browsing cutting-edge galleries and designer boutiques before retreating to a chic mountainside patio for a signature après-ski cocktail. The area pulses with a sophisticated energy, perfectly blending the rugged, untamed spirit of the Rockies with the high-culture prestige of the Aspen Art Museum. Whether you’re admiring the sheer scale of the surrounding peaks or the intricate details of local craftsmanship, Aspen is an atmosphere that is both wildly adventurous and undeniably polished.
OMG my work is in Aspen!
To say that my artwork is officially featured in the heart of Aspen is a dream come true. But the story of how it happened? That makes it even better!
The gallery owner actually discovered my work at an art festival last summer. We hit it off immediately, and the day after the show ended, she went on a total "buying spree" in my booth! I had tucked away a few special pieces I thought would resonate with her vision, and when she saw them, her confidence was infectious. She looked at the collection and said, "I am going to sell the ---- out of these prints!"
I loved her fire, her spirit, and her unwavering belief in my "high-vibration" art. Since then, it has been a match made in heaven. My work has found its home at
a place famous for its eclectic, weird, and wonderful collection. I fit right in! There is something so rewarding about being one of the 100 Colorado-based artists she has carefully curated over the years.
My "reclaimed-material masterpieces"—painted on everything from vintage tin to old cupboard doors—are now part of the soul of this iconic downtown collective. If you find yourself strolling through the mountain air of Aspen, please stop by the Emporium and tell them Meg Harper sent you. Take a moment to explore the fabulous selection of my work and soak in the "funk and soul" of the best shop in town. Have a blast!
