Karen Damyanovich
Looking for cowgirl art? Pony up to Duley-Jones Gallery, which features the whimsical, bright oil and crayon drawings of Colorado artist Karen Damyanovich in her ‘‘Even Cowgirls Get Painted'' exhibition. This piece, “Girls Night Out,” reflects one of the artist's favorite pastimes: Going out with her gal pals. (7100 E. Main St., , www.duleyjones.com)

Glenna Goodacre
