A Milestone Selection: The 40th Annual All Colorado Art Show

Written By Jay Cupcake

I am incredibly proud to share that my digital collage work was selected for the 40th Annual All Colorado Art Show! Hosted at the prestigious Curtis Center for the Arts, this exhibition is a cornerstone of the Colorado summer arts calendar.

The Best of the Best

This year’s juror, Libby Garon, had the monumental task of selecting just 50 pieces from nearly 800 entries submitted by artists across the entire state. To have my collage included in that final group of 50 is a significant honor. The show represents a vibrant cross-section of Colorado’s creative talent, and being part of this 40-year tradition is a highlight of my career.

Visit the Curtis Center

The Curtis Center is a beautiful space for fine art, and this curated collection is the perfect reason to make a trip to Greenwood Village this summer.

  • Exhibition Dates: July 15 – August 26, 2023

  • Opening Reception: Saturday, July 15, from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

  • Location: Curtis Center for the Arts, 2349 East Orchard Road, Greenwood Village, CO 80121

A huge thank you to Libby Garon and the City of Greenwood Village for including my work in this landmark anniversary show.

I’ve always believed that a great portrait is a collaboration, not just a click of a shutter. My name is Jay, and for over a decade, I’ve been capturing the vibrant, the surreal, and the unapologetically authentic. Recently relocated from the mountains of Colorado to the Twin Cities, I bring an editorial eye and a 'laughter-first' philosophy to every session.

My work spans the spectrum of the human experience—from photographing the Mayor of Denver for Civilian Magazine to creating high-concept digital collages featuring the icons of the drag and variety scene. Whether I’m building a complex 100-layer digital piece or capturing a clean, professional headshot, my goal is to make my subjects feel like the most powerful version of themselves. I don't just take pictures; I help personalities shine through.
