About A New View Painting

I began my painting career in the Midwest in 1985, working summers throughout high school, college, and graduate school to help cover tuition costs. After spending eight years with the same painting company, I branched out after college and started my first painting business in the suburbs of Chicago.

In the late 1990s, I moved to Colorado to attend graduate school at the University of Colorado and continued painting to help cover the bills. It’s been part of my life for as long as I can remember.

In 2008, I decided to put my graduate degree in education to use and started teaching high school history in Frederick. By that point, I was married with three kids, and like many teachers, I found myself needing extra income, so I turned back to painting. I often joked that I painted to support my teaching habit. Summers became my busy season again, just like they had been during college.

That setup worked for a while, but eventually, I found myself pulled in too many directions. Summer painting turned into weekend work, then nights, and before I knew it, I was working two full-time jobs. I was worn out. I still believe I was a good teacher, but I knew I could have been better if I’d had more time to focus on it. I wanted to grow, to teach new classes, but there just weren’t enough hours in the day.

Eventually, I made the decision to leave the classroom and commit fully to painting. Looking back now, it’s hard to believe A New View Painting has been in business for nearly 20 years. I do miss teaching—connecting with students, seeing learning happen—but I genuinely love what I do now. Meeting with customers, helping them choose colors, coordinating with my crew, and ensuring every project turns out just right gives me a great deal of satisfaction.

I’m grateful to be based in Erie, where this great community has become home. We’ve grown our business to serve Boulder, Lafayette, Longmont, Broomfield, and other nearby areas. A huge thank you to all our customers—new and returning—who have helped make A New View Painting what it is today.
