Jane Abrams
For nearly five decades, Jane Abrams has lived & worked in the village of Los Ranchos, a quiet community nestled in the Rio Grande valley near Albuquerque, New Mexico. A lifetime of travels has seen Jane explore the globe, wandering through ancient ruins and jungles of Mexico and Central America and along riverbanks in India. Other journeys have taken her to the mountainous regions of China and Thailand, as well as to the Netherlands and Spain. She has also spent countless hours walking the paths through the bosque along the Rio Grande, along acequias, desert spaces and familiar fields near her New Mexico home. The widely varied foliage of these diverse locales serves as her inspiration, empowering her to create richly detailed paintings of botanical subjects. Her imaginative paintings are often wild in their complexity, with an atmosphere of otherworldly locales.
Abrams’ mastery of her art has been widely recognized, with her work exhibited extensively in both gallery and museum settings.
Douglas Atwill
Douglas Atwill has been a fixture in the Santa Fe art scene since the late 1970s. He paints in acrylics, usually on the primed linen canvas he prefers. His subjects range from the New Mexico landscape of mesas, escarpments and mountain scenes to verdant corners of his own garden. Atwill’s work is widely held in numerous personal collections, and is also displayed on corporate and museum walls across the country. A prolific and disciplined artist, Douglas often completes fifty or more paintings each year. Atwill is also well known in Santa Fe for his work as a designer and builder. He is the author of over a dozen books, including novels, short stories, memoirs and poetry.
