Peggy ZurisJoyful, celebratory and certainly uplifting Zuris has created depictions of New Mexico in her enchantingly magical style. Movement and color are the signatures of her paintings. She has captured the natural beauty in a way that speaks intensely of the fabric of life that is so identifiably New Mexico. Her humility suppresses that which is exuberantly unrestrained by others who know and celebrate her work. Her impressions express a joy of life. |
Susan WeeksMy original paintings are all watercolors. I use bright, saturated colors in a photorealistic vein, exaggerating the contrast between light and dark values. |

Michelle ChrismanI love the visual beauty of New Mexico and the West, the desert, the richness and variety of the 3 cultures. I consider myself a contemporary colorist and New Mexico Modernist, but most of all, a visual poet. I am drawn to paint endangered wilderness, historic buildings, and fading cultural traditions. In hopes of drawing public awareness to help preserve them, I capture them on canvas. My favorite subject has become endangered New Mexico wilderness areas because they are hauntingly beautiful and our national treasure. In addition to painting endangered wilderness areas and historic buildings, I enjoy painting the figure in the environment. |

Penne RobertsPenne graduated from Texas Woman’s University where she earned her degree in Clothing and Textiles. Her minor in Art influenced the development of a creative career in pottery and sculpture. She has enhanced her understanding of the technical and historical aspects of pottery and her ability to work with clay through extensive travel and study throughout the United States, Mexico, Canada, New Zealand, Europe, South America and Antarctica. Participating in and learning a variety of techniques in 30 years of workshops sponsored by the New Mexico Potters and Clay Artists Association at Ghost Ranch have given her a “Masters” in working with clay.

Deborah L. PaisnerDeborah Paisner began oil painting eight years ago upon relocating to Santa Fe with her family. Since then, she has been inspired by the beauty of the area, and driven to paint, often all hours of the day and night, family time permitting. She paints representational landscapes on location, still life and figurative paintings, as well as unique compositions from her own photographs. Deborah constantly hones her skills by taking courses and workshops with local artists, such as Anita Louise West and Kevin Gorges. After painting for only two years, she began getting work accepted in notable juried art shows, such as Oil Painters of America, Salmagundi Art Club, Northern Colorado Artist Association, and the Rio Grande Artist Association, Her work has also been shown on Canyon Road. |

Frances James MaresThe ability to capture a subject suspended in time regardless of the final outcome has always attracted me to the photographic process. Whether it be a still life, a street scene, a monument or ruin, much like reading a book one is free to use one’s mind to fill in the rest of the story. I think one can do this with photographic images at hand. The greatest of photographers not only have the basic craft mastered but also, in my opinion ,are able to move the viewer to contemplate about the subject to one’s desire. In a world pushed by deadlines, fear, technology it is sometimes refreshing to “leave” the world at bay and enjoy a painting, a sculpture or a photograph. Hopefully in a similar fashion I can encourage this exploration. The actual photographic process is the most exhilarating of all but displaying it is the icing on the cake! I thank my wife and two girls for their support and inspiration in this endeavor. They have been truly MY inspiration. |
Susan E RodenSusan E. Roden's pastels are diminutive, vibrant and impacted with mood and color. Susan says of her work "By limiting elements in the visual plane, I force my viewers to observe the unnoticed subtleties of life – the elegance and grace of fabric folds, the richness of colors and the contours of objects."

Growing up in New Mexico, there are many aspects of the environment that have become iconic to me; among these are poplars in the fall, small mountain orchards and billowing late-summer clouds. Working as a news photographer also had a significant impact on my work. The day-to-day confrontation of an often ugly reality caused me to seek a more idealistic and whimsical world through my paintings. I continue to distill this combination of intense colors and stylized reality in my New Mexico landscapes.
