Come Dream in watercolor with Max Kauffman at Fashion Denver

Denver, CO- Dreams are world where flying isn’t unrealistic, running at high speeds is the daily norm and encountering otherworldly beings seems to be your everyday experience. While many spend their nights cuddled up under their covers creating their own realm, local Denver artist Max Kauffman is wide-awake painting it into reality. Kauffman will be bringing his dreamscapes to the showroom of Fashion Denver on First Friday, November 4th from 5-9PM.

Highly influenced by visual folklore, Kauffman mainly utilizes watercolor, ink and an Italian watercolor named “gouache” to illustrate worlds on paper that are normally only seen in the subconscious. His recent series “Migrations” is a work that mirrors an ethereal point of view of the avian world. Throughout the evening, Kauffman will be debuting new pieces of artwork, his recent series, as well as showcasing other pieces for viewing and purchasing pleasure.

But, for those that are just itching to grasp a touch of his fantasy, fans and art lovers have a chance to enter a drawing for one of Kauffman’s pieces, which will continue until the evening of First Friday at 8:30PM at Fashion Denver.

It’s no secret that we LOVE to celebrate Halloween pretty much the entire month of October and we’re gearing up for the fun season with a few items at Fashion Denver that will get you ready!

Designer Katie Wells of GiddyUp, just dropped off about a dozen costumes for adults and children.  Her whimsical designs are sure to make your costume stick out from the rest! Be a Killer Bee, or The Girl that got Shot Out of a Cannon, or a pirate princess! Stop in and see the rest of the costumes before they sell out.

Not quite into the costume thing but don’t want to go out completely normal? Try a WINGBANDIT! These cute headbands with wings come in a variety of colors and if you want, you can even get your logo or your name on them!
