I create contemporary fiber art in a variety of media, with a particular focus on spiritual ecology, handmade paper art and sculpture. Patterns in nature, textures and seasonal changes inform my sculptures that reveal primitive and refined qualities.
I offer papermaking and fiber art workshops on Zoom and In-Person at my Santa Fe studio.

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.

Darlene Olivia McElroy comes from an old New Mexico family of artists, musicians and inventors. She is a mad scientist of art techniques and is continually exploring new surfaces, materials and techniques.
Throughout her career McElroy has combined head and heart in her journey of creating evocative mixed-media paintings. Trained as a painter and illustrator, she has an obsession for materials, passion for dreamlike imagery, and love of new technologies, which she uses to immerse herself in richly textured surfaces, mixtures of old and new, and brilliant and subdued tones. And always, there is a face or symbol of humanity that serves as a guide into mysterious layers which challenge reason and draw upon emotions.

"Deep in the Heart"
30 X 24, Mixed media on wood panel
My formal education was in science, and I have lived in a world of complicated, abstract concepts, experimental design and data analysis. At the same time, I’ve always created with my hands in addition to my head. Over the years, and using all manner of media (fabric, fiber, glass, paper, clay, paint) I’ve explored form and function, color and shape, representation and abstraction. Making something from nothing.
My training in the scientific method was applied to a study of the external world. The process goes like this: Ask a question, pose a hypothesis. Apply an appropriate process to obtain an answer while simultaneously letting go of the outcome. Experience the result. Ask the next question. Repeat. Engaged with logical thinking and problem solving, the mind ultimately synthesizes a whole from disparate elements.
Now, I find that I use this same approach in creating art for the study of my internal world. My heart explores spiritual and emotional questions, perhaps even the unknowable. I ask a question, and, letting go of the outcome, I begin my process. Add a layer of paint, take some away. Apply medium for texture. Glue on paper or found objects. Layer by layer, adding and removing, obliterating and revealing, solving problems and creating a whole from disparate parts.

Cheri's seemingly casual aesthetic shifts emphasis from outrageous and funky to tender and charming. Re-creating child like images with recurring motifs such as dogs, stuffed animals, flowers and religious iconography she attempts to understand her world with finding humor in beauty and the beauty of humor.

"My art is based on photos taken of interesting compositions found in ordinary, daily reality, unmanipulated except for color, although occasionally I experiment with applying bi-lateral symmetry to an image. It's very exciting, being able to create abstract images based directly on everyday reality. All this inspired by 25 years of enjoying an astonishing variety of abstract art in the museums and galleries while living in New York City. I refer to the process as Photo/Painting Alchemy, and the resulting body of work as Imaginarium. Preferring not to repeat myself, each piece should be a new visual adventure."

After experimenting with oil and acrylic, I found my true affinity is with transparent watercolor. I love its spontaneity, its freedom of flow, the surprises, and the challenge to master or at least control the independence of its gentle yet willful nature. I do still lifes now and then, but I am particularly attracted to landscapes. Color and light are the elements that most strike my sensuous core. Watercolor seems to best capture for me the vibrancy and translucence of sky, earth, water and all that grows and travels therein. I may know where I want to go, but how to get there is always an adventure.

As an artist, what interests me most is portraying relationships through the essence of the moment.... I work predominately on a grand scale in a vibrant, colorful manner with loose sweeping brushwork in acrylic on canvas.

"While much of my bronze sculpture expresses some of my favorite animal
personalities, my curiousity for new subjects, sculpture mediums and 3D technology,
have given me a new inspiration for creating and casting sculpture."

I paint exotic landscapes - my versions of heaven - shimmering with gold leaf and other reflective materials, to create places that are beautiful and meditative not found on earth. If you're up for a creative experience, please contact me to arrange a custom commission painting for your home or office. I also provide painting classes, books and instructional videos that include my unique systems and methods for teaching contemporary painting techniques.

In the very noisy, chaotic, cacophony of our visible/audible world aloud with swirling voices and conflicting diatribes, I have found myself continuing to be fascinated with the more subtle nuances of human expression, gesture, movement, moment, action, interaction, and reaction which offer to me a sense of wonderment.
