    Bill Amundson is one of Colorado's most renowned contemporary artists. His intricate drawings and "Suburban Regionalist" style are devoted to capturing and celebrating the true American scene rather than the idealized version so often pictured in the art of our time. Amundson's work reflects an interest in the contemporary American landscape through such distinct staples as the subdivision, the chain restaurant, retail franchises, interstate travel, SUV's and the ubiquitous cell phone. His work has been described in various publications as "ironic, compulsive, sweet, irreverent, whimsical, fanatical, hysterical, and banal." The skillful drawings on exhibit at the Smokebrush Gallery are also full of Amundson's trademark satire and sharp humor.
