Dru Dormer, new puppy addition to the gallery family

Translations Gallery artist James Dormer just got a new Springer Spaniel puppy named Dru. We think it's pretty funny when dog owners look like their dogs. However, we find that Dru resembles Dormer's artwork. The black and white colors of his coat are found in many of Dormer's amazing lithographs, which he completes using automatism or mark-making. See more of Dormer's work in the gallery or on our website. Images (top): James Dormer, Battle II, lithograph, 16"w x 13"h, framed, (bottom): Dru, Springer Spaniel pup

New HBurger Restaurant, Denver


The new HBurger Restaurant located in Denver's LoDo District on 16th Street Mall is opening this week. We are proud to announce that the restaurant recently acquired an amazing painting from Translations Gallery, Lisabel Filiatrault's Joy. The piece is 8' x 4' and hangs behind the bar. We think it is quite fitting due to the fact that the painting resembles ketchup, mustard, and mayo in a beautifully balanced composition.

The gallery staff had the pleasure of attending an opening party last Friday to enjoy tastings of some of HBurger's fine cuisine, including the Eden (veggie) burger, sweet potato fries, and to-die-for ice cream sandwiches. We also enjoyed a fabulous lunch today with the traditional hburger, super yummy french fries (we can't figure out what they put on them to make them so addictive), and the Marshmellow Nutella Milk Shake (vanilla vodka, hazelnut liquor, Nutella, vanilla ice cream, topped with roasted marshmellows). How many different ways are there to say YUM?
