Welcome to Sun’s Traces Gallery

Sun’s Traces Gallery features ceramic work created by Paula Brown-Steedly who also creates stunning one-of-a-kind equine pieces.

“The work is grounded in life and is a personal response to the enduring tenacity of life.”

Sun’s Traces is located in the village of Barboursville, Virginia near the Blue Ridge Mountains and Virginia wine country. The gallery is also near the home of James Madison, “Montpelier” where steeplechase races are held  annually the first weekend in November. Also nearby are the Barboursville Vineyards.
