A Colorful Interpretation of Life
My current work is about transformation. I am painting people who are transitioning from darkness into light. Each with their own story. Having experienced the gift of hindsight I felt compelled to portray the experience. These figures still wear the marks of their colorful past as they are finding that they are made of all they have lived. They have not had a black and white existence but have lived a whole palette full of color between those extremes. The colors of our lives have transformed into making us who we are today. And yet we strive to look forward, seeking the light with it’s clarity, grace and direction.

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.

 PhotoAlchemy

Picture
  PhotoAlchemy is a process I created about 10 years ago. It combines original photographs and a variety of acrylic media. It also blends my love of photography and mosaics. Each pieces a one of a kind.  They need no framing and are ready to hang. 
  In addition to showing my canvasses here, I belong to the Santa Fe Artists’ Market, Eldorado Studio Tour,  and the Northern New Mexico Fine Arts and Craft Guild.
   My husband and I have loved living in Eldorado since 2012. We are from the Philadelphia area originally and moved here after 18 years in Phoenix. ​
   If you have any questions, requests or choose to hang a piece in your space, I look forward to hearing from you.
Taylor Oliver,
Photo/Painting Imaginarium

Photopaintings are abstract photographs, compositions unmanipulated,
some or all image elements recolored digitally.
Please click on images to enlarge
"My art is based on photos taken of interesting compositions found in ordinary, daily reality, unmanipulated except for color.  All 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."

​Rena Paradis,
Native American & Hispanic Portraits
VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE
Rena's art work is stylized, focusing on portraits and situational studies of Native American and Hispanic people, her favorite subject. Comfortably familiar with the customs, culture and diversity found in Santa Fe, the colors and feelings of the southwest are very much an integral part of her artistic expression.
Roberta Parry,
Transparent Watercolors

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.
​Ron Patterson
Impressionistic Painter 
VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE
Ron studied art at the Central Academy of Art in Cincinnati, Ohio under the distinguished painter of Western Art, Jackson Grey Story.
In addition to being a talented painter, Ron is a sought-after commercial artist, graphic
​designer and illustrator.
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.

My work expresses deep feelings about my inner world and relationships. A life-changing sojourn in Japan and especially the ability of the Japanese people to “make space” in the mind and heart in the midst of crowds greatly influences my work. My paintings are further inspired by living in the high desert of New Mexico where the land and skies – vibrantly colored, constantly shifting – captivate my imagination   I give voice to the freedom that comes from squeezing through.
Aleta Pippin, 
Abstract Artist
VISIT ARTIST'S WEBSITE
Aleta Pippin is inspired to go within and work from her imagination. Passion, energy, movement in color perfectly describe Pippin's vibrant abstract paintings. A natural-born colorist, Aleta works intuitively with various media ranging from oils to acrylics and resin. Her paintings are saturated with rich luminous hues, layers of color and energetic mark-making. Pippin closed her gallery the end of 2019 to focus on her artwork.
Carrie Quade,
Bronze & Ceramic Sculptures

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.
