Aquatique is the collaborative endeavor between photographer and mixed media artist Gina Burg and illustrator and painter Elle Powell. Their individual works being shown together in Aquatique are their love letters to the many stunning aquatic ecosystems around the world.

Gina’s work highlights the movement and light within landscapes and the beauty of the human form. By blending the mediums of film, graphic art and painting, she merges the real and the surreal to illustrate the moods of nature. Through her passion for composition, Gina’s creative intention is to capture the feeling of motion through a dream-like quality of light. She aims to inspire the viewer to feel her passion for the elemental beauty of water. Gina’s art has been showcased in several galleries throughout Denver. Over the years, she has worked with many other artists, musicians and photographers from every facet of the
creative community. In her day job, she was a featured photographer in 5280 Magazine, as well as within TheKnot.com and WeddingWire.com and was proud to be featured as a Wedding.com Best of Photographer.

Elle Powell is a world traveling Denver native who has been drawing and painting for the past fifteen years. She studied philosophy and fine art at Occidental College in Los Angeles and is currently an MFA candidate at the Savannah College of Art and Design. She believes in spreading joy and beauty through her artwork, and contributes a percentage of her profits to charity.
