Patricia Amlin, whose work is included in most major institutions in the United States including the Smithsonian, just exhibited a new series of 12 large oil paintings during January at the Gunnison Arts Center in Gunnison, Colorado.
“Flyway or Avian Abstractions; An aerial view of the amazing migration of Sand Hill Cranes from Bosque del Apache, NM to the Alaskan Tundra is inspired by the amazing physical feats of these many million year old cranes who once flew over the wooly mammoths and watched the birth of the Rocky Mountains.
The excitement of attending the dawn fly out of the thousands of warbling birds is one of the most spiritual events to be found today.“
Amlin’s interest in the subject began with a dream while she was teaching Film Making and Drawing at San Francisco State University. Patricia retired from teaching, moved to Gunnison, Colorado, across from ”Neversink”, a resting place on the Great North American Crane Flyway and began painting. She drew upon her early training at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Skowhegan School of Painting where she worked with Oscar Kokoschka, Max Weber, George Grosz and Isabel Bishop. Flying along with this classic education is her obsession from years in film with movement, time, space, natures recurring metamorphosis.
Patricia’s delight is in co-creating a single moment in a cycle when all energy is in motion.
Her paintings are full of light and love of the Creation. This new series spans the crane migration over the red rocks of the desert to the cold purity of the nesting grounds of the north and the birth of a new generation of these fast disappearing remarkable birds.

The Infinite Moment: mating spirituality and sensuality
The Infinite Moment, a four decade painting/sculpture exploration, has its genesis during the eight years I lived and wove with the Navajo. There, at the loom, I was gifted with legends, songs and stories that clarify the cosmos and enrich the spirit. According to legend, the Navajo loom—with its soaring uprights and top horizontal crossbeams—was created by the sacred union of Father Sky and Mother Earth. To weave on this loom is to be at the energy center of a balanced cosmos (hozhóji) where epic, primordial, elemental energies are channeled to the weaver and her art.
In time, I came to see the loom as a symbol of profound unity.
For in the infinite moment in which Sky mates Earth, so too: warp and weft; post and lintel; male and female; human and nature; spirit and matter.
Unity out of duality. Two becoming One.
beauty.
balance.
blessing.
hozhoji.
In my art I symbolize hozhóji—in all its dimensionality—as the spiritual and sensual mating of horizontal and vertical.

The uniqueness of my fiber art developed from my passions for baskets, horses and Spanish metal work. My adoration for baskets was cultivated at childhood when on Saturday mornings in Argentina I would wait with excitement for a horse drawn basket cart to pass in front of our house. As it approached I would run out of the house and admire the utilitarian baskets piled high on the cart. My enthusiasm for horses has always been with me ever since I can remember and I have always had them in my life. Since living in the southwest I have become intrigued by early silver and tinwork done by the Spaniards. My art reflects a personal interpretation of these multicultural interests.
My horsehair hand stamped sterling silver baskets are contemporary in nature and traditional in materials. I use a coiled basketry technique with innovative stitching designs and imaginative sterling silver metal work. The basket’s shapes vary depending on the original hand stamped sterling silver, which serve as a base for the horsehair bundles.

I'm interested in expressing human emotions like tranquility, appreciation of beauty and joy in a mysterious, sometimes scary dramatically changing world that has almost unimaginable possibilities.
Sometimes I am exploring unknown swirling forces surrounding an entity who may or may not be human. Forms suggest microorganisms or just energy. Lights are surrounded by darkness. The forms seem enthralled, fascinated, a part of it all.
Fascination with mystery, ambivalence of the seen and unseen and the attempt at resolution of confusion and order are some of the factors influencing my work.

I play with art subjects – both literally and figuratively. My chosen media are fibers, precious metals and stone formed into sculptures.
I love words and their connotations. I also love the dichotomy of soft and sensuous fibers – mostly silks – juxtaposed with precious metals and stone. I love to take a fantasy and make it reality; or take a reality and make it a fantasy.

It is great reverence for our relationship to the natural world that entices
me to paint. The Grand Canyon and other sacred and stunning landscapes are
deeply inspirational to me as an artist. My art making is on some level
about the mystery and sharing my response to experiences in nature. The
colors, textures, and patterns revealed by dramatic light inspire me.
Subconscious elements of symbolism are everywhere in the natural landscape
and create emotional responses that come from deep within, bypassing the
left brain and connecting straight to the heart. I want to re-create the
feeling that being in the particular outdoor experience gave and to learn
from the experience. Each painting is an unpredictable adventure and I never
know what the end result might be, but only that I have to make the attempt
and see what emerges.

As an artist I speak through color and shape of an amorphous yet ethereal quality.
After years of representational painting in oils. I began abstracting forms in acrylic medium. Each painting provides its own unique fascination by the rhythm and movement of the colors. The random patterns reveal an unending adventure in depth and dimension, thus allowing the viewer their own interpretation.
Thepaintings contain multiple layers applied slowly - as each previous layer dictates the next passage. The revelations are surprising and breathtaking, a never-ending adventure for those who choose to gaze deeply and slowly!

My art is about experiencing and examining the world and human interaction. My latest series is a group of layered panel paintings with cut out holes called “Receding Earth”. These paintings deal with the destruction of the earth through pollution, global warming and war. The holes are reminders of the loss human and the various species are undergoing.
I work with natural pigments and oil pastels to give my work vivid colors conveying the sense of beauty and bounty the earth has to offer.

“In a world of hard realities I like to infuse a little whimsy, beauty, and humor – wherever I can, so as not to forget what can be.”
Michele Lyon paints in acrylic. She has a unique ability to achieve the look of oil without the drawbacks and specializes in “fooling the eye.” With humor and taste she decided to paint anthropomorphic art rarely done in the art community, utilizing her love of classicism of the 17th to 19th centuries. It is her desire to reclaim the past using modern techniques. She also paints; historical figures, Native American Indians, whimsical art scenes and contemporary art (using a mixed media).
Michele has lived throughout the west and
Southwest. She was born in Los Angeles and has lived up and down the west coast including Seattle for many years. She now resides in Santa Fe. Her father was a well known artist in Taos for over 35 years: Frank O Lyon. She grew up in that art community around other well known artists such as; R. C. Gorman and Kelly Pruitt. Her formal training and education came via her father and the galleries and bronze foundry he owned. She also attended colleges in the northwest majoring in; art, art history and interior design. Her love of interior design and working for over 18 years in that field has enabled her to understand the buyer and the desire for homeowners to achieve richness to their lives. She has participated in various art venues all around the west. |

I have always looked to nature as inspiration and sustenance, with light and time as unifying threads. It is light that is the cornerstone of physics and has allowed scientists to prove that we are made of the same materials as the stars. For the last twenty years my work has focused on storms and atmospheric phenomena. I have found in storms and the movement of clouds, metaphors for all of life. I seek to convey not only the beauty of these events, but also the immense power. My hope is to remind us that we cannot control the environment, but must live with it in cooperation and respect.
