About - Meet Mallory Paige

Nestled in the tiny mountain town of Westcliffe, Colorado, Mallory Paige has carved out a life that defies convention. From her off-grid homestead studio with sweeping views of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, she creates vibrant watercolor and acrylic paintings while raising four young children with her husband. Her art pulses with the wild beauty that surrounds her—endless skies, rugged peaks, and the untamed spirit of the Colorado high country that serves as both her backyard and her muse.

But Mallory's path to becoming an artist wasn't a straight line. She's lived in a vintage VW van, traveled solo across continents, and even motorcycle-camped across North America with her dog Baylor riding shotgun in a custom sidecar (complete with goggles!). Through each adventure—whether navigating dirt roads with a broken clutch cable or setting up camp on deserted islands—she learned that life rarely goes according to plan. These experiences taught her resilience, creativity in problem-solving, and most importantly, that the best moments often emerge from the unexpected detours.

For years, Mallory believed she didn't have any artistic talent. The fear of failure kept her paintbrushes packed away, even as she fearlessly tackled physical adventures and built a homestead from scratch. Then one day, she realized the only thing standing between her and her artistic dreams was herself. So she did what she'd always done with every other scary-but-worthwhile endeavor: jumped in feet first. Now, from her solar-powered studio where chickens occasionally wander past the windows and her children's laughter echoes across the meadow, she creates art that captures both the beauty of the natural world and the joy of finally embracing the creative life she'd always dreamed of living.
