I’m stoked to be vending my art at Animas River Days this year—right in the heart of Durango, where the river and the community come alive. I’ll be bringing a full spread of Lil Bud Designs: retro-inspired collages, original illustrations, and vintage-style prints that celebrate the wild, weird, and wonderful. Swing by my booth, say hey, and check out some art that flows with the same funky energy as the Animas.

​Animas River Days is Durango, Colorado’s signature whitewater festival, celebrating the Animas River with a weekend of thrilling river sports, community spirit, and eco-conscious fun.

FIBArk in Salida—one of the rowdiest and most legendary river festivals around. I’m bringing the full Lil Bud Designs vibe: layered collage art, hand-drawn illustrations, and vintage-inspired prints that feel right at home with the mountain-town energy. Come find my booth, soak up the scene, and grab something rad while the river rages.

Rhythms on the Rio is a beloved annual music festival held in Del Norte, Colorado, returning for its 18th year from July 31 to August 3, 2025.

I’ll be there attending and showcasing my art—excited to be part of such an inspiring and meaningful event!

New Mexico’s best music festival is the perfect blend of sound, soul, and scenery—set against the breathtaking backdrop of Abiquiu, where Georgia O’Keeffe found her muse.

I’m excited to be showcasing my art at this one-of-a-kind festival—can’t wait to be part of the magic!
