Now Showing: Designing Happiness
First Friday, April 4, 2025
Confluence Center | 119 W Main St, Missoula | 5–8pm
This intimate re-emergence marks Ivette’s return to the art world—more than a show, it’s a personal shift.
Through curated pieces drawn from her archive and personal collection, this exhibit reflects the quiet beauty of realignment. Each painting carries the resonance of transformation—of a woman who has harmonized inner and outer worlds, and now creates from a place of profound intentionality.
Some pieces are available for purchase. Others are simply here to be witnessed.
The exhibit remains on view through April 25 and may be seen by appointment by contacting the Confluence Center at 406-926-6526.

ART WHISPERS THE POSSIBILTY OF OUR DREAMS. |
"My wife and I ONLY purchase contemporary HORSE art. After 36 years, we have a fun collection. Yours will be added to horse art items by Leroy Neiman, Peter Max, Roy Lichenstein (sp), Dennis d'Angelo, and others...even a small Picasso item. " ~Ken H.
"Ivette! I LOVE THE ENCAUSTIC PAINTINGS! They are going to fit perfectly in the space I had planned for them. I will send you pictures when we get them hung. Now I want a big one. Thank you! thank you!" ~Debbie T.
