She graduated from Doane University in 2008, and the following summer, traveled to Florence, Italy, where she studied painting and drawing at SACI.

The Barbara Tellatin Gallery
About the Gallery
The Barbara Tellatin Gallery is lovingly named after longtime FAAA Member and Fremont artist and art teacher Barbara Tellatin. Barbara's husband purchased the naming rights to this space for the 2024 calendar year to honor her memory in the building and with the organization that she loved so much. Being the center of the guests' gathering at receptions and luncheons makes this gallery a favorite among exhibiting artists.
On Exhibit This Month: Photography by Desarae
In June, we welcome photographer Desarae Mueller-Fichepain to the Barbara Tellatin Gallery. Desarae Mueller-Fichepain has always enjoyed capturing her travels, nature, and intriguing finds through her camera lens. She loves to find beauty in the ordinary and looking for something special in patterns, textures, colors, and elements of everyday life. For years, people who saw her photos suggested she print and display them in a gallery, but life's demands always took precedence. With her children now grown, Desarae was once again encouraged to showcase the images hidden away on her phone and hard drive. March of 2025 marked Desarae's long-awaited debut at the JCC Art Gallery in Omaha, NE. Gallery 92 West in Fremont will be her second, but this exhibit is special for Desarae because Fremont is her hometown. Go class of '81. Singling out photos to create a gallery collection that truly represents the breadth of her artistic vision was a gratifying yet challenging endeavor for Desarae. Carefully choosing and assembling the perfect frames and mats to complement each photo is yet another expression of her keen attention to artistic detail. Desarae would like to thank all those who inspired her to share her images with a wider audience. For more information about prints or to receive updates when new prints are released, please contact: PhotographyByDesarae@gmail.com
