INSIDE ART

Silas Axtell

by Dagny McKinley

When Silas Axtell first returned to Steamboat Springs from studying art in New York, I asked him where he worked. He replied he only painted. That level of confidence was impressive in a town where most people work three jobs. Fortunately, Silas had the skills to back up the ambition. Looking at his works, he will be successful—he may even be Steamboat Springs’ next Gregory Block.
