“ It's all about the Light …The art of capturing its magic, mystery and essence

through the dance of brush, paint and canvas.”

Lifetime of Art - Teresa Vito

May 20 to November 17 | Hoag Gallery

Teresa Vito has been a full-time oil painter since 1992.  She currently lives in Pueblo, Colorado. She’s won numerous national and regional awards including an Award of Excellence, Best Portrait and Best Still Life Awards from Oil Painters of America. 

From a tiny town in New York, Teresa Vito majored in art because she loved to draw. With $250 and a train ticket to Denver, Vito began her artistic journey. When the Art Students League in Denver opened, she maneuvered a job there running a small art supply store. Here, she discovered the world of Artists Workshops. With this inspiration, Vito saved up enough money in 1992 to live cheaply for a year and become a full-time artist. She has never looked back, and strives to continue to be the best possible painter she can be. She now teaches workshops with gratitude and generosity, to share in all that she has learned. 


Vito has a BA in Fine Art from the State University of New York at Geneseo and has taught and studied around the world and with many professional artists, such as Quang Ho, Ramon Kelley, Clyde Aspevig, Mike Lynch, Greg McHuron, and Laura Robb. Vito painted with acclaimed Master Artist Richard Schmid for five years. 


Locally, Vito is the artist for the Pueblo Chile Brand. She painted the iconic Pueblo Chili mural that resides on the Arts Alliance building and is now featured on a Colorado License plate. She has taught many artists locally and is always willing to share a tip or send a new artist to perfect resources. The Sangre de Cristo is proud to present to you, “A Lifetime of Art” a retrospective of Teresa Vito’s life-work.
