TATE SMITH
(NOVEMBER 2022)
Tate Smith is a dedicated father and husband that enjoys getting his girls out into Wyoming's countryside for adventure. As a working-landscape conservationist, Tate is fortunate to explore across all of Wyoming and experience everything the state has to offer. His photography captures Wyoming's flora, fauna, and landscapes. Working exclusively without post production modifications, Tate's "in-body only" approach to photography captures the truth and beauty he gets to witness: crisp, vivid, and pure.

DANIELLE KIRBY
(SEPTEMBER 2022)
Stop by Blue Raven Brewery during September's Friday Artwalk on September 2nd to meet artist Danielle Kirby. She aspires to "recreate those moments just after a thunderstorm - the moody tension, theatrical colors, dramatic light" and we all agree she has done just that! Take in her dramatic sky paintings in the comfort of the tap room all through the month of September!

CURTIS HOLCOMB
(AUGUST 2022)
Curtis Holcomb's art was featured at Blue Raven Brewery in August of 2022. For those that came by to see these beautiful pieces, thank you! We hope to have his work in the brewery again soon. “A lot of my work is inspired by different aspects of nature and the combination of graphic design. Line, shape, and color theory all play an import role in what I create, as well as the process in which it is created. I like to be hands on as much as possible. Even with digital modes of art, I like to have some kind of physical hand in the work.”

MIKE WALLACE
( JULY 2022)
Blue Raven Brewery had the pleasure of displaying the photography of Mike Wallace during the month of July in 2022, which was truly astounding to behold. When asked, "How would you describe yourself and your art?" BRB's July artist responded, "Mike Wallace - His head is massive, he's kinda fat, and he likes to document pretty stuff." We knew then that Mike had the perfect sense of humor to fit in with our brewery crew!

SHAGGY OF ECLECTIC CAUSE
( PERMANENTLY ON DISPLAY)
"Blue Raven 1" is a gorgeous raven rendering always on display at the Blue Raven Brewery. This piece was designed by Shaggy, the drummer for Eclectic Cause. Shortly after the Blue Raven Brewery opened in May of 2022, and shortly after their performance on Blue Raven's stage, Shaggy came by to give us his first piece of raven art to donate to our walls. Thank you Shaggy!

SHAGGY OF ECLECTIC CAUSE
( PERMANENTLY ON DISPLAY)
"Blue Raven 2" is another amazing raven rendering always on display at the Blue Raven Brewery. This piece was designed by Shaggy, the drummer for Eclectic Cause. After Shaggy donated Blue Raven 1 to the brewery, he came back and asked where the picture was, expecting to see it on our walls. One of the owners had taken it home, so he decided to make us another to hang specifically at the brewery. Now both images are at the brewery displayed side-by-side. Thank you once again, Shagster!
