Dear friends and family of Pine Moon Fine Art,
Whether you live in Steamboat full time, part time, or like to come visit throughout the year, you’ve certainly come across the motto ‘Kindness Floats the Boat’. A simple but powerful saying, it speaks to the transformative impact that even the smallest gesture can have both on the individual and the community. With each act of kindness, a ripple effect is set in motion. Like a pebble thrown into a calm pond, the waves of kindness spread far and wide. This new year let us embrace kindness with open hearts. All of us at Pine Moon Fine Art wish you a very happy year, carried by growing ripples of peace and kindness.
New Beginnings is the title of our January group exhibition. We invite you to come see what this sentiment means to each one of our artists. First Friday Artwalk is this Friday, January 5th, 5–8pm. We look forward to seeing you!

GOOD NEWS
This year’s Winter Carnival Poster, commissioned by Steamboat Sotheby’s International Realty, was created by our own Susan Gill Jackson. The original artwork will be auctioned at the SSWSC Foundation fundraiser All In! on Saturday, February 10, 2024, benefiting the Scholarship Fund.
INSPIRATION
The inspiration for CELEBRATE, the 2024 Winter Carnival poster came from the event name: WINTER around here speaks for itself, is beautiful strong and enduring – like out athletes and like our Western Heritage. Since 1914, the locals have kept the Winter Carnival history. And this town likes to celebrate with fireworks – thus the title CELEBRATE!
ABOUT SUSAN GILL JACKSON
Susan Gill Jackson, was born an artist. She has always pursued art through the study of various mediums including pencil, watercolor, stained glass, trompel’oeil and oil painting. More recently she has grown in her obsession with painting en plein aire and being directly in the elements to capture the fleeting light and color. She has found it to be quite an intimate and exciting challenge.
