Rory Combs Sculptor, Ruidoso NM TO CONNECT WITH RORY CLICK ON BUTTONS BELOW "Dignity...It's an attribute I find most appealing in my Native American subjects, and it's what I strive to convey in my sculptures. Having grown up in an area rich in Native American history, I have been intrigued by Native American culture since childhood and marvel in their spirituality and wisdom. I earned my BA degree in Advertising Design from Iowa State University. Although mostly self-taught, I have attended a few classes and sculpture workshops. I am a member of the National Sculpture Society, and my work has appeared in juried shows from Wyoming to Illinois. My work is available at Maya Gallery in Santa Fe, or through my website." www.rorycombs.com/Contact.html New Mexico artists are amazing!

Carla Forrest, Contemporary Painter Painting the New West Aliso Studio Suites, 3812 Central Ave SE, Suite 207, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87108 Contemporary artist Carla Forrest paints multi-layered, textural works inspired by direct observation of nature and life. Forrest attributes her love of expressionistic mark-making to her undergraduate study of sculpture and modernism. She is a first-generation Ukrainian American who is captivated by the color and value contrasts of contemporary expressionist works. Ode to Diebenkorn Honored as a Local Treasure by the Albuquerque Arts Business Association, Forrest’s personal artistic mission integrates awareness of environmental conservation, community connectivity, and creativity. Forrest obtained her Bachelor of Arts in studio art from State University of New York, Master of Science in Teaching Visual Arts from Rochester Institute of Technology, and Doctor of Philosophy in Organizational Learning and Instructional Technologies from University of New Mexico. "I approach art as an attentive observer of the soul, seeking to illuminate the presence, wonder, and inherent dignity of nature and life. My work invites viewers to value both place and person within a space of spirit and heart, and to carry that sense of awareness into their own environments. In an increasingly digital world dominated by flattened imagery and diminished physicality, I strive to restore depth, form, and authentic passion.

Bill Sabatini Fine Art Abstract Landscape Painter FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT BILL'S WEBSITE Instagram STUDIO TOUR EMAIL "I work in my Albuquerque studio as an abstract painter, transforming the sensations of landscape into fields of color, texture, and dynamic gesture. After a forty-year career as an award-winning architect, I shifted fully into painting, bringing with me a deep understanding of spatial balance, structure, and material presence." "My paintings reimagine landscape from the inside out. I’m not depicting a specific place; I’m evoking the experience of place—color as temperature, texture as terrain, line as movement. My architectural background remains present but never literal: in faint graphite lines, in the quiet balance of mass and void, in the proportional instincts shaped by decades of designing space. These echoes act not as constraints but as scaffolds for a more intuitive, expressive process. The work embraces a sense of freedom—forms shifting, colliding, dissolving, and recomposing." "Color is central to my practice. While the desert’s earth tones remain a constant thread, I also reach for radiant magentas, electric greens, cobalt blues, and bursts of orange and gold. These hues open a dynamic tension between structure and spontaneity, suggesting landscapes energized by memory rather than geography. My surfaces evolve in layers—scraped, built, washed, or embedded—allowing traces of earlier decisions to remain visible. These tactile histories invite slow looking, gradually revealing their complexity." "Ultimately, I’m not painting the desert itself, but the feeling of standing in it: the warmth, the vastness, the quiet energy of open space. In a world full of visual noise, I hope my work offers grounded clarity and the quiet exhilaration of deep looking—an expression of a lifetime spent refining how I see."

Gayle Faucette Wisbon Art from the Land of Enchantment VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE Follow Gayle Faucette Wisbon Fine Art on Instagram "Painting is something I have a strong need and desire to do. There is something very fulfilling about creating something with your own hands. Here in New Mexico, the light, the colors and the shapes within the landscape are a never-ending source of inspiration for me. These elements are the perfect excuse for me to paint the way I do. Acrylics have become my medium of choice due to the rich colors, fast drying time and durability.From my own reference photos and sketches, I try to capture in paint the subjects that draw my attention. It could be flowers, a landscape, a time of day or just the way the light touches certain objects. It is my way of saving memories of things that leave me in awe." New Mexico artists are amazing!

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."

Karen Melody Shatar A Touch of Glass VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE Follow Karen's Facebook Page View Karen's Placitas Studio Tour Fused glass explorations using many modalities and multiple firings such as the incorporation of paints, mica, dichroic glass and paper design combinations create artistic and functional ware and jewelry, merging the practical and the whimsical. Studying with a master teacher is a process of blossoming into the unknown and bringing the magic and mystery of clay into a form that resonates with my soul. I am fully committed to finding the joy of expression in clay as I learn new techniques and delve into the mystery of making. I use low fire and high fire glazes, an electric kiln and am in the process of building a propane kiln and exploring its uses. As a writer and traveler, I have learned to enjoy the nuances of place, people, relationship and interaction with self and other. As a potter, I am learning to enjoy the same energies that exist within myself and bring them into expression. This is a magical journey into unknown territory that I find thrilling as it guides me into an almost meditative energy that speaks of aspects of my being that I have never before encountered.

SOLO SHOW “Light and Motion” Dec. 2 to Dec. 19, 2025 Strata Gallery, 125 Lincoln Ave. In downtown Santa Fe next to the NM History Museum off of the plaza. The opening is on Friday, Dec. 5 from 5-7 "Painting is like a dance for me. I feel that I am a partner with the paint and the canvas. It is a physical act of rhythm, texture, surface and subsurface, always moving, always in flux. I enjoy the process of discovering negative and positive shapes by using painters tape to mask off areas, or by scratching deeper into the paint to reveal hidden surfaces, much like looking through ice on a frozen lake."

Mary Beagle Painter & Sculptor 480 El Prado Ave, Las Cruces, NM VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE Represented by Jane Hamilton Fine Art Gallery in Tucson, AZ. "I have always primarily worked with oil on canvas; my paintings reflecting my love of Native cultures and celebrations. After years of snowbirding, my husband and I relocated to New Mexico from Connecticut. Now my colors are becoming more vibrant with an emphasis on lighting. I like incorporating geometric or Native designs in my compositions to compliment the faces and figures I paint." “I enjoy bringing life to a blank canvas with colors and shapes, and finding a figure in a chunk of stone.” READ MORE New Mexico artists are amazing!

Doug Miller, Painter & Sculptor VISIT DOUG'S NEW OFFICAL WEBSITE EMAIL: [email protected] Doug's art is on display at Artifacts 302 Gallery & Studio Bake Shoppe 302 E Main St, Farmington, New Mexico. Solo Show Salmon Ruins Museum Show, Until Dec. 20, 2025 Highway 64, 2 miles west of Bloomfield, NM 505-632-2013 I've always been an artist at heart. Living in the southwest United States I have always been intrigued by the lives of the peoples that have lived here before modern man came along. I hail from Farmington, New Mexico and a lot of my artwork is based on the prehistoric designs that I can walk out my back door and find on ancient pottery or as pictographs painted on rocks by the ancient peoples that are no longer here. I'm not just a painter though. I am also a microlithic architectural sculptor, my medium being the ancient sandstone found where I live. I create very detailed sculptures that resemble the ancient cliff dwellings and ruins that are found at world renowned archaeological sites throughout the Southwestern United States. I also do modern themed artwork. I am a self taught artist and have won many awards for my works. I hope you will enjoy my art as as much as I do creating it.

She grew up in a world where all things were possible in her imagination. It was a world where she could look through the microscope in her fathers office and paint what she saw. Her early years were spent on the border of Mexico where the people, animals, landscape, music, culture and the stories of the curanderas shaped her reality. Years later she would return frequently to Mexico and South America to absorb the culture, traditions and art. Her spirituality combined with her scientific studies directed her work from realism to abstraction. New Mexico artists are amazing!

Life, in all its complexities and distractions, begins to make sense in the creation of a painting that holds as much mystery for the painter as the observer. The dreamer understands the mystery and knows that language can never express it so completely. New Mexico artists are amazing!
