The old Adobe buildings around the Santa Fe area

I am a painter living in Las Cruces, NM. After many years as an illustrator I turned to fine art to develop my own artistic voice. I currently teach talented and enthusiastic artists in oil, acrylic and egg tempera painting. I am also a member of the Artist Guild of Southern New Mexico.

Can't find a favorite part.....love it all. What outstanding texture and color.......
ReplyDeleteI love the thickness and the structures of the paint in this one. I also love the composition and contrasts of the different areas. It is interesting to see how defined the areas is, and yet the colors and structures keep them together (if you know what I mean). That is why I leaning on giving "open acrylics" a real chance, to be able to work with the colors on the canvas. Normal acrylics dry so fast.
ReplyDeleteWho knew there was so much green? Those little pops of turquoise are exquisite too!
ReplyDeleteYour landscape has got to be just amazing. I bet it's just a constant source of inspiration. This one turned out well and as always, I love that turquoise door:)
ReplyDeleteI could look at this one all day! I loved New Mexico, especially Santa Fe!! .. Maybe someday I'll visit again!! Beautiful strong colors, Julie!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis painting makes me want to visit New Mexico - it is going on my "bucket list" of things to do. Hubby has always wanted to see it too...so someday here we come!
ReplyDeleteOkay, maybe this one instead!!
ReplyDeletewow! it makes me want to visit there!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors, especially the door! Looks very inviting!
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog.
ReplyDeleteLovely definition and abstraction.
ReplyDeleteI really love the glow in this one Julie. And I want to walk through that blue door. What would I find in there? Stunning...and should I ever get the privilege to visit NM, I will know what to look for because of the visions in my mind of your pretty paintings.
ReplyDeleteAnother inspiring piece.
ReplyDeleteEverything is just captivating...skies are beautiful, trees are gorgeous and stucco is textured and full of color. What incredible places to paint in New Mexico!
