Ivana Starcevic is a contemporary expressionistic painter currently residing and working in Corrales, New Mexico. She has long sought to capture “the spirit of place” in her artwork, finding inspiration from not only her current surroundings but also from the fragmented memories of her youth in Europe. From the age of four, Starcevic knew she wanted to be an artist. She earned a BFA in Ceramics and Studio Art and an MFA in Mixed Media from the Academy of Applied Arts University in Belgrade and completed postgraduate work in printmaking at the University of New Mexico.
Her paintings are rich in color, verve, and motion, whether interpreting raw landscapes, radiant light, or the brilliant colors of the New Mexico sky. Her current work, inspired by southwestern hues and views, is usually painted from memory, guided by intuition, and fueled by imagination. Ivana's work, described by one critic as “unshakably cosmopolitan, irreversibly modern, and strikingly innovative,” has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and her pieces are held in both public and private collections including the City of Albuquerque “Art in Public Spaces”. She also has permanent collections of her paintings at the high-tech Senspex building and a collection of large paintings at the NM Cancer Center. In 2022, Starcevic has been honored to be named a Local Treasure by the Albuquerque Arts Business Association. New Mexico artists are amazing!

 Rene Sepulveda Sculptured Abstract Works Resident Artist, 2nd Life Gallery, Roadrunner Emporium, Alamogordo, New Mexico Artist Rene Sepulveda’s carefully constructed sculptures and art installations are abstract interpretative works that rely heavily on the influence of nature for texture and symmetry, for rural to urban spaces.
"I believe that the artistry of Cholla Art, Tree Trunk Art, Root Art or Lava Rock and Metal works are unique and not well understood, in that most homeowners or business owners don’t have the knowledge of the beauty these pieces can bring to their environment. Most people have not been exposed to these kinds of sculptured works, very few artists create art with these mediums as a canvas. Most people don’t know the sense of Zen or harmony that is created by including these pieces into the home, office, or business environment."  “Desert Life” an interpretative collection created by Artist Rene Sepulveda showcased at Roadrunner Emporium Fine Art Gallery, Alamogordo, New Mexico Rene Sepulveda former NCAA Award winning Track and Field Coach, California/New Mexico regionally renown Rehabilitative Coach turned artist who creates sculptured abstract works. One art critic recently said of his works that they are “incisive meditations of colorishis designs, shapes and composition complimenting natures wonders using lava rocks, tree roots, tree trunks, bark, cholla desert cactus as components of his canvas.”

Endless Spring Barbara McCulloch Oil Paintings VISIT BARBARA'S WEBSITE Facebook Group- "The Unstoppable Artist” Facebook page Instagram EMAIL JOIN “The Unstoppable Artist” Facebook group  She is Resilient Artist Statement: I am currently enjoying the freedom of exploration in materials and techniques. I have created a workbook, “The Unstoppable Artist” which has a wide range of traditional and creative art projects and examples, so I am expanding a cohesive library of examples for future use through workshops. Making time for creative exploration is a passion that I transmit to emerging artists. The inspiration that I receive from life whether fauna or flora is the awareness that all life is intrinsically connected. This feeling of awe runs through me and into my painting, regardless of materials or technique and is usually expressed as interpretive and modulated color applied with a lyrical brush in appreciation for the beauty of nature.

My custom jewelry designs are created JUST FOR YOU no two pieces are alike."  Hammered silver Chrysocolla hematite pendant "I’m originally from the east coast and I grew up visiting craft centers in the Virginia and West Virginia mountains. I was entranced with the jewelry and art I saw. I always loved working with my hands and I really enjoy the process of designing and creating jewelry. I moved to New Mexico because this part of the country is the most deeply inspiring place I’ve ever been. I love the colors in the landscape and the every changing clouds in the sky. I want my jewelry to communicate my excitement and enthusiasm for New Mexico."
"I work primarily in silver - sometimes in copper. I make the components of my pieces by hand to create the overall design. Texture is a fundamental part of many of my designs and I incorporate patterns and shapes from nature in many of my pieces. My formal education is in chemistry. I didn’t become really involved in making jewelry until I was out of college and working. I started with some silver smithing classes and since then I’ve pursued a continuing course of jewelry related classes."

There is always a space that contains a story; there is always a path that leads us on into our own story. The solitude and peace that we all seek is in the magic of Ann’s work.
Painting is my form of meditation: it is going to a place of calm and quiet strength. My inspiration comes from the Northern New Mexico landscape, the high-altitude light, and the mysteries surrounding the old places. Inspirations’ come from emotions and dreams.

ARTIST STATEMENT: “Painting is my passion and joy, and art for me is a celebration of life. My paintings have a bright and saturated palette because I like the freedom of not having any restrictions when it comes to color. My work is expressed through patterns in a decorative and playful manner. I try to incorporate movement, imagination and artistry in each of my pieces. The media I currently work in both oil and acrylic. The subject matter I reflect in my paintings embraces music, dance, nature, and architecture, all of which inspire me as an artist. These are the elements that bring me happiness in my day to day life and I hope I can share that joy and passion with others through my art.”  New Mexico artists are amazing!

Snow Shadows on Mustang Alley, oil on canvas, 16"x20" Colleen Zacharias Gregoire, Artist for CZG Studios Oils and Watercolor Paintings VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE Follow CZG Studios on Facebook Participant Placitas Studio Tour  Blues Porch, oil, 28"x40" My oils and watercolor paintings are inspired by a spiritual sense of 'home', a search for quiet respite and reflection, defined by the house we live in or the land around us. Connecting with our surroundings provides both a simple pleasure and a vital purpose to our existence. My landscape paintings tend to focus on the immediate and perhaps often overlooked details in nature, as do my architectural studies. I am also intrigued by the history of the front porches of the past, and the way in which people incorporate them as a welcoming space to their homes. These snapshots of daily life are set like a stage with the changing effects of light from season to season, and the rich play of colors that harmonize to define a personal and very intimate space.

"I paint mainly in oils, primarily landscapes, but I also enjoy non-representational work. My love of quilts shows up in my geometric painting series, which I drafted using a quilt design software. My goal is always to paint honestly, and to channel the joy I feel while painting. I want my paintings to sing to me, which is when I know that I like them enough to have them seen publically."

Theresa Cashman TLC Stained Glass ARTIST VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE EMAIL THERESA Classes – Commissions – Repairs I love sharing my inspiration with others and am honored to create and restore beloved items for my clients. -Theresa Lynn Cashman
 Glass has always been an attractive medium to me. When I left teaching in 2017, I finally had the hours to dedicate to this time-intensive craft. After apprenticing with Scottish Stained Glass, I was hired on as a builder and restorer. Now, I create, restore, repair, and host classes in my studio on Cerrillos Rd to share my love of this age-old art with others. As an emerging artist, I find myself on a tightrope between decorative and fine art. Sometimes I fall one way, sometimes the other. My favorite pieces are the ones with hidden messages or meaning beyond the obvious symbolism or shapes included in the piece, and the ones that find the right combination of colors, textures, and opacities. Finding this combination can be somewhat challenging, even with the wide variety of art glass available, but it feels so good to find it.

I began my artistic career as an illustrator and graphic designer for print media; pen and ink were my best friends. Over the years, I expanded my range of media and artistic styles. I now concentrate on painting with acrylics, oils with cold wax, and encaustics (hand-prepared oil tints with wax formulations) as I venture into the abstract. I have further used pieces of old paintings, collected ephemera and graphic sensibilities to work in paper collage. All works are abstracted, and my method of creation requires that I face and embrace change and the unexpected.
