Montrose, Colorado
Artist Lu Anne Tyrrell
About The
Artist
Lu Anne Tyrrell's love and passion
for her native state of Colorado is evident in the bold,
pristine colors she uses to illustrate "Colorado
Scenes," a series of limited edition collectible
prints that celebrate the beauty she finds throughout
the Centennial State.
"Creativity and artistry have
always been a part of my life. I never remember a time
that I was not drawing, designing, or painting,"
reflects the watercolor artist, Tyrrell.
Tyrrell studied advertising and commercial
art at Northern Arizona University, giving her the foundation
with which to capture the soul of a community, the spirit
of the wild, and the serenity of the nature. |

Her perspective is unique and the energy
her colors ignites take viewers to the heart of the subject.
Tyrrell worked in the Pacific Northwest for a number of years,
where she owned and operated Alive
Designs, a design and marketing firm. Since her return to
Colorado, she has been commissioned for artist's renditions
of several upscale properties in Steamboat Springs, Telluride,
Aspen and Montrose. She designed the gateway banners which
welcome visitors to Montrose, and was selected to paint an
artistic ornament to represent Montrose County on Governor
Bill Owens' executive residence Christmas tree in 2003.
In a different vein of creativity, Tyrrell
directed Historic Montrose Downtown for three years. Among
her achievements, she worked with local entrepreneurs to develop
"Main in Motion," a hometown festival held Thursdays
throughout the summer. The successful program resulted in
a Governor's Award for Main Street Excellence in 2003.
Her watercolor art prints "Main in
Motion," "Gypsy Horse Running," and a montage
of Colorado scenes, are now available online.
