"Beauty of New Mexico," Oil Painting on Masonite

 

I paint many abstracted faces that appear out of mind, but every once in a while I like to paint a more realistic image.  This is one of those images.  Not any particular person, Beauty of New Mexicoto me she personifies New Mexico in so many ways--a melding of the cultures inhabiting the land, Native American, Hispanic, Anglo, and more.  Taos Pueblo is always a part of the landscape as here in this painting.  It has survived for over 1,000 years and will continue to do so.   All is part of the land, the air, and the people.
