ARE YOU INTERESTED IN ACQUIRING FINE ART but unsure how to get started? Relax— a formal background in art history isn’t necessary in order to make savvy purchases. All you need is a sense of wonder and a willingness to learn.

GETTING STARTED Most collectors start in the same place: by reading art magazines, surfing the internet, visiting galleries and art shows, and touring museums. As a new art enthusiast, you should see as much as possible and discover what appeals to your tastes. Do you prefer contemporary works or antiques? Paintings or sculpture? Ask yourself why. Take note of any style, artist, or medium that catches your eye. As your understanding and experience grow, your tastes may evolve.

FINDING GALLERIES When you visit galleries, stick to reputable art dealers only. “Look for galleries who have been in business a long time,” recommends Rick Rosenthal, owner of Tucson’s Morning Star Traders. “Reputation can be a good indicator of quality.”

John Hill, of Scottsdale’s John C. Hill Antique Indian Art agrees: “A reputable gallery is essential. Especially if you are considering expensive items, you want to have confidence that you are dealing with an ethical gallery. Ask your knowledgeable friends or museums for recommendations.”

For Native American art galleries, Rosenthal also suggests looking for members of professional organizations such as the Antique Tribal Arts Dealer Association. These organizations ensure that their members uphold standards of integrity and experience.

GALLERY ATMOSPHERE When you visit a gallery, trust your gut. Do you feel comfortable in the gallery’s surroundings? Is the staff knowledgeable and willing to answer your questions?

“Sometimes, new buyers feel intimidated when they go into galleries for the first time,”

Take time to learn what type of art appeals to you. One of the most common mistakes a novice art buyer can make is not fully understanding what you like.

explains Hill. “Good galleries are aware of this and will try to put you at ease.” Remember that gallery owners are in the trade because they are passionate about art. If given an opportunity, most art dealers are delighted to share their knowledge with you.

Jeff Mitchell, owner of Scottsdale’s Mitchell Brown Fine Art, encourages new art enthusiasts

to actively ask questions. “Any question is a good one,” Jeff says. “If a gallery is not willing to answer your questions, then it is not a gallery you want to visit.”

FINDING THE RIGHT ART Experts are adamant that the most important reason for a new buyer to purchase art is because they love it. “Buy a piece that moves

you—that makes your heart sing,” says Susan Libby, an artist and the president of Desert Artisans’ Gallery in Tucson. Libby cautions against buying fine art simply because it matches the furniture. “Truly loving the piece is the only real reason to buy art.”

Remember that the person who must love the piece is you, not your decorator. “Don’t buy because of someone else’s taste,” says Peter Strub, owner of Marshall Gallery in Scottsdale.

“Only you really know what you like. ‘This above all: to thine own self be true.’”

The worst thing a beginner can do is to buy art for an “investment”. Mark Sublette of Medicine Man Gallery of Tucson and Santa Fe explains: “Your art may appreciate in value; many works do,” he says, “but that is icing on the cake. Buy a piece because it makes your heart pound—never just because a dealer tells you it’s a good investment.”

Jeff Mitchell adds this proviso: “If a gallery pressures you to buy simply because ‘the price is sure to go up’, leave the gallery immediately.” Do your homework, compare prices at similar galleries, and follow your instincts instead.

GALLERY TRANSACTIONS Once you have done the research, found a gallery you like and trust, and fallen in love with a piece of art, what are your next steps?

If you are buying a historic painting (i.e., 1940s and earlier), Mitchell recommends that you explicitly ask about condition. “I would ask if the painting has been ‘blacklighted’, which means looking at the painting using an ultraviolet light. In a dark room, damage, repair, and forged signatures will glow under this kind of lighting. If a gallery is www. A ZColle c torsGuid e .com

uncomfortable showing you the work under a black light, you should leave that establishment.”

Pat Messier of Tucson’s Gallery West believes that a legitimate dealer will actually welcome questions about an item’s condition. “Respected art dealers will always stand behind the items they sell,” she says.

Many novice collectors wonder about the firmness of pricing. It is appropriate to

Find out which galleries handle the kind of work you like. Refuse to do business with any gallery that makes you feel intimidated or doesn’t welcome questions.

discreetly ask the salesperson: “Is this the best price you can give me?”

But keep this in mind: whatever you do, do not ask for a discount unless you are 99% sure you are going to buy the item. To ask for “the best price” and then leave is insulting to the gallery. Be aware, too, that many times the gallery simply cannot reduce the price.

Galleries have to pay for the premises you like

to visit, salaries, artist commissions, and expenses involved with finding and authenticating pieces.

Ron Skwier, an artist and co-owner of Scottsdale’s Providence Galleries offers this additional caution when pricing works by

living artists: “Some galleries are owned and operated by the artists themselves. If you are working directly with an artist, avoid asking for a discount. Let the artist take the lead. If you admire and honor their work, they want you to have the piece. They will be most likely to work with you at that point.”

If you are on the fence about a piece, ask the gallery if they will hold the item for a few days so that you can mull over the purchase. Many galleries will even let you try a piece in your home (usually taking a credit card number as security). “We are happy to work with clients and let them appreciate the art in the atmosphere they will see it in,” explains Skwier.

Some galleries will also let you buy a piece over time. Typically, you will have to make a down payment and then make payments over a three- to four-month period while the gallery retains the work.

Ask the gallery about other services they offer. Some galleries, like Scottsdale’s Marshall Gallery, will hang the work in your home to allow you the advantage of having a trained eye help with placement.

KEEP IN MIND Jeff Mitchell urges you to have fun with the buying process. “If you aren’t enjoying buying art, you are doing it for the wrong reasons,” Jeff

explains. “Don’t put pressure on yourself to assemble a ‘collection’. Just buy a piece or two to see how your interest and knowledge grow. Be comfortable.”

Many of our experts recommend obtaining the finest work you can afford. Mark Sublette explains: “You should always buy the best examples you can when building your collection.” Peter Strub agrees: “Never suffer mediocrity on the basis of affordability.

The momentary hurt in the pocketbook will be assuaged by a lifetime of satisfaction.”

Of course, buying the best you can also means buying the best you can emotionally afford. Jeff Mitchell insists that you remain comfortable at all times. “Your pocketbook might allow you to buy a very expensive work, but your psyche might not. Buy the best at your comfort level, and then take your work home and enjoy it.”

Following these steps will make your first art purchase (and the next, and the next ...) a pleasure. Susan Libby puts it this way: “Fine art is a gift to yourself and to your life.”

BISBEE IS A RIDE IN A COAL CAR deep into Arizona’s only mine tour, and afterwards, sipping on a Cold Miner, Bisbee’s signature coffee drink from the local coffee shop. Take a stroll along Main Street and Brewery Gulch, and be pleased by small and large treasures in the many art, gift, and antique shops.

What draws the snowbird in winter is much the same as what appeals to Arizona residents in the summer--weather! At 5,300 ft, Bisbee boasts cooler summers and milder winters than most of the state; making it a favorite with residents..

Like many mining towns around the country, Bisbee has taken to heart the American call to reinvent. The miner’s shacks dotting the hillsides have morphed into cozy second homes with yellow clapboard siding and matching rose covered trellis’. Old mercantile buildings, like the Letson on Main, have managed to retain their original high tin ceilings and deep cool interior. Buildings are red brick or painted bright welcoming colors. They are quaint, like the smallest store in town, the Killer Bee and Honey Store on Main, wedged between Single Tree and Verano Fine Art Gallery, or big, like Atalantis Music and Books.

You can enjoy the luxury of the gourmand at Café Roca, Southern Arizona’s only four-star restaurant, or eat casually, at colorful Santiago’s and Bisbee grill covers everything from ribs to salads. For lunch, everything’s fresh at the Cornopia or Prickly Pear. Then stay overnight in one of the many Bed and Breakfast Inns, like Bisbee’s newest, the Letson Loft, or the oldest hotel in town, the Copper Queen.

G al lery of D r e am s n

BY B. LEH N H A R DT

GALLERY OF DREAMS fulfills the vision of owners Tim and Karen Trask to present fine art in a friendly and positive environment. Located along Highway 80 in St. David, 7 miles south of Benson, Arizona, and 17 miles north of Tombstone, the very blue gallery is easy to spot.

Gallery of Dreams represents more than 30 local, national, and international artists working in a wide variety of styles and media. In addition to oil and acrylic paintings, the gallery exhibits jewelry, mixed media, leatherwork, fountains, and bronze and stone sculpture.

Louisiana’s bayou country produced well-known Folk Artist, Hambone, who is a self-taught Creole Choctaw.

Hambone’s paintings reflect the rich, colorful history of the Deep South. His work is simple and unpretentious, colorful and humorous, and is in high demand by collectors worldwide.

In contrast to Hambone’s work, Robert Burt is a contemporary Western artist who uses bold color and strong composition to portray landscapes, people, and architecture, reducing each to its most elemental and powerful components. His paintings vibrate with artistic energy and color, entertaining both eye and mind.

Bob Coonts’ work can be simultaneously realistic and abstract, but always maintains his subject’s essence. This results in a style bordering on abstract but reflecting a true image. He says, “Form, color, composition and texture inspire me and give life to my work.”

Owner/artist Tim Trask exhibits his bronze and stone sculptures in the gallery. Over the years, he has experimented with casting by adding special alloys to strengthen the bronze allowing him to create sculptures that appear to defy the laws of gravity. “In my 35 years of being a sculptor and artist, I have met many wonderful artists... It is an honor for me to have this opportunity to display their art along with mine in this beautiful gallery.”

Belleza Ar t G alle ry A B E AUTI F UL A RT E X P ER I EN C E

IN ITALY, BELLEZA MEANS “BEAUTIFUL”. In Bisbee, Belleza stands for beautiful art in a beautiful setting helping a beautiful cause.

Belleza represents the area’s finest artists. Artist commissions have included those from the Bellagio in Las Vegas, the Sedona Hilton, the Scottsdale Sheraton, and the Phoenix city transit system. Other honors Belleza artists have enjoyed are one-man shows in Tokyo and full-time representation in other major art centers of the West. Not only is there a long waiting list of artists hoping to be exhibited at Belleza, other galleries often express desire to have an association.

Why is there such excitement surrounding Belleza? Because there is another facet of the gallery that enriches clients, the artists, and society as a whole. Unlike most galleries, Belleza is a non-profit organization.

One hundred percent of the net profits from sales goes to benefit residents of Renaissance House, a program designed to help homeless women recover from abuse or substance addiction.

William Spencer III is one of the artists represented by Belleza. His acclaimed work is part of important collections including the main lobby of the Historic Curtis Center in Philadelphia, the Tucson International Airport, the Sedona Hilton concierge center, and in community centers in Paradise Valley and Scottsdale.

William is a pillar of the Belleza community and his work sells briskly.

“Just as Belleza is the backbone of my art sales,” William explains, “I have come to realize that I am also part of the backbone of the gallery and what it stands for. This is an awesome responsibility and a great gift.”

Gallery Manager Lou Anne Sterbick-Nelson personally ensures a Belleza gallery experience. “We represent serious artists in a healing atmosphere,” Lou Anne says. “I invite you to visit us in Bisbee; it is well worth the trip.”

GLASS BEAD ARTIST KATE DREW-WILKINSON creates exquisite fine art beads in her Bisbee studio. But she is more than a master beadmaker: Kate is the caretaker of a human legacy.

Kate crafts her beads with lampwork, an ancient method developed in Italy in the 1500s. Popular with collectors, Kate’s beads sell almost as fast as she can make them. “People love beads,” Kate explains. “They are magical, with real ‘touch appeal’. You can wear a handmade bead with anything and not look overdressed.”

Exploring bead artistry is part of a natural career progression for multitalented Kate, whose past endeavors include Shakespearean actress, acclaimed jewelry designer, and bead historian.

Originally from Great Britain, Kate’s creative hub is now the artist mecca of Bisbee, a place she happily calls home after a lifetime of near-nomadic traveling.

“There is peace here,” Kate says. “People greet each other with joy.”

For Kate, beads reflect how she sees the world—as if the culmination of her entire life is in each bead. An avid learner herself, Kate is committed to teaching other bead artists through her instructional DVDs, freely sharing her knowledge with fellow jewelry makers to keep the craft alive: “Twenty years ago, there were only five glass beadmakers in the United States.

Extraterrestrial bead – Photo by Sandy Upson Now there are about 3000.”

For a captivating trip into the world of beadmaking, head to Kate’s bustling studio gallery and see for yourself how this ancient art form is preserved for future generations. “Glass beadmaking is an ancient occupation,” Kate says with pride. “Beads last thousands of years, and I have seeded mine all over the planet. My beads are everywhere from the bottom of the ocean to the Taj Mahal.”

Óptimo Hatworks and Timeless Attire HA ND -CR A F T E D HATS , L E AT HE R J AC KE TS A ND V ESTS

BY A . STEEBY

ÓPTIMO HATWORKS AND TIMELESS ATTIRE offers custom hats and leatherwear—all of which are expertly made by hand to last for decades.

With regard to hats, Óptimo is one of only a few traditional milliners still in existence.

Proprietor S. Grant Sergot painstakingly hand-shapes each one using vintage tools.

“Historic equipment is the best for sculpting a hat by hand,” Grant explains, “but I use them to create contemporary looks for both casual or dress.”

To make an Óptimo hat, Sergot starts with a hat body of either straw (hand-woven in Ecuador) or beaver felt (hand-crafted in Tennessee). He manually steams and shapes, teasing the hat body into the desired style and fitting the client’s specific head contours.

Grant believes that an ideal hat fits both the head and the personality of the owner.

For his line of “travel leathers”, Grant designs the entire collection and personally works with skilled leather artists from Ecuador to achieve his high standards of quality. “I chose Ecuadorian artisans because their tradition of craftsmanship is—bar none—the best in the world,” he says.

Grant’s travel leathers offer maximum wardrobe flexibility: The jackets and vests look great duded-up for dress occasions yet remain perfectly at home in casual settings.

With construction that includes thoughtful placement of snaps, closures, and pockets, these garments are appropriate for weekend jaunts and international travel alike. Prices are surprisingly affordable, with vests starting around $100 and jackets going up to $300.

“I’m pleased to offer hats, vests, and jackets that surpass both functional and aesthetic needs,” Grant says. “As I like to say about the collection: To see it is to smile; to touch it is to feel good; to wear it is to know... Óptimo.” Óptimo Hatworks and Timeless Attire is located at 47 Main Street in Bisbee.

To see it is to smile, to touch it is to feel good.

Fine straws hand-woven in Ecuador, including the legendary Montecristi.

Custom-blended beaver, cashmere, and wild hare felt hats.

We have original designs both in contemporary and period fashions. Along with cleaning and reblocking we are also conservators in restoring important antique hats.

“I am committed to signature quality work and am not bound to one stylistic vocabulary. My work is comprised of original designs and commingles traditional, vintage and contemporary styles along with classic variations on a theme. To fit the usage, style and the personality of the wearer.”

The hatworks is museum-like in its layout so the public can view hat making in the old world style. We are an atelier (salon studio) that is open for educational tours for school groups, friends of the library, etc. We have become a destination for Bisbee and the state or Arizona.

Verano Fine Art Gall ery n

BY R . DA H LK E

OWNERS ROSARIO WILKE AND REBECCA DAHLKE opened Verano Fine Art Gallery August 2007 to rave reviews. Talented in her own right, Rosario produces one-of-a-kind custom art tiles depicting local ancient Indian pictographs, as well as horses and birds. Rebecca’s oils are of the broad Arizona landscapes, luminous sunsets and migrating birds of the Southwest.

Like a lot of happy transplants, they’ve both wholeheartedly embraced everything about Arizona and it shows in their gallery.

With a background in design, Rosario wanted a comfortable feel to the gallery. Horses, cattle, cactus cowboys, buffalo and birds are hung on a neutral backdrop of chocolate brown walls or on contrasting towers. All are colors that compliment the southwest feel, giving customers the advantage of seeing what the art would look like on their walls.

“We must be doing something right,” says Rebecca, “because we ship all over the United States as well as Canada. Even the locals come in and buy from us.”

Choosing from the large community of talented Arizona artists, they like the idea of representing not only their own (From Left to Right) Rebecca Dahlke, Patricia Mathes, and Rosario Wilke work but other artists who created the beauty of the southwest. “Some of our artists, says Rosario, “are nationally recognized, but also most of them come from right here in southern Arizona. Subsequently we came upon our motto—Art of the Southwest by Artists of the Southwest”.

Even the pottery and jewelry are made by southwest artists. Jewelry may emphasize local turquoise and custom made glass beads. The sculpture could be a whimsical javelina with a porcine nose sniffing the air, or a gently rotound green spotted cow. Platters and vases glow with blooming agave against a sandstone color background and creative one-of-a-kind masks and Kachina style dolls delight everyone.

EVERY FEBRUARY, TUBAC, ARIZONA is home to the Tubac Festival of the Arts: an art, craft, and music extravaganza sponsored by the Tubac Chamber of Commerce. Hundreds of artists, craftspeople, and musicians participate, hailing from all over the United States and Canada.

The festival began in 1960, and is the longest-running art show in the state. Thousands of art and craft lovers come to the festival each year for the unparalleled selection of fine art and handcrafted gift items.

In addition to outdoor vendor booths featuring breathtaking art, handmade crafts, and tastetempting food, most of Tubac’s dozens of galleries have special artist showings.

Horse-drawn trolleys run continuously, providing a rustic alternative to traveling the event on foot.

Tubac, one of the oldest settlements in the Southwest, is known as the place “Where Art and History Meet”. The Hohokam tribe farmed the area until 1500 A.D., followed by the Tohono O’odham and Pima tribes. The Spanish arrived in 1691 and established a fort called Presidio of San Ignacio de Tubac in 1752. The area gained independence from Spain in 1821, bringing Tubac under Mexican rule until 1853, when The Gadsden Purchase made the area part of the United States. Artist Dale Nichols established the Tubac Artists School in 1948, which begat the area’s current manifestation as a thriving artist community.

February weather in Tubac is heavenly, with mild, sunny daytime temperatures in the 60s and low-70s—perfect weather for enjoying the festival’s outdoor venue. If you would like to stay overnight at one of Tubac’s hotels or bed and breakfasts, be sure to make your reservations in advance as the town attracts many out-of-towners during the festival. The Tubac Festival of the Arts runs from February 6 -10, 2008.

Michael McCullough

HOW WOULD YOU FEEL if your job consisted of twelve-hour work days and no vacation?

For painter Michael McCullough, such employment is a blessing. “I feel lucky to work this hard at something I love,” the artist says. “If I didn’t get to paint, I’d just wither up and blow away.”

Michael won’t be disappearing on the wind any time soon. Art collectors avidly seek his watercolor and acrylic paintings, giving the artist plenty of opportunity to paint the southwest-inspired imagery he loves.

Even as a youngster, Michael was driven to paint. He had little access to art materials as a child, but like any creative person, he improvised.

“One time, I got my hands on my sister’s makeup and used it to paint.

She tortured me for about four weeks after that,” Michael says with a laugh. He also recalls enlarging a hole in a bed sheet with his big toe until the sheet was unusable, then using the damaged linens as a makeshift canvas for his early artistry.

Fortunately, his mother’s linen closet was not sacrificed in vain.

Michael is an accomplished, but well-grounded, artist who still gets a thrill when his work strikes an emotional chord with a client. “I take it as a great complement when someone wants to bring one of my paintings into their home,” he says.

Michael is a member of the Choctaw Indian Nation of Oklahoma and currently lives in Albuquerque where he makes his home with his wife, Judy, and their five dogs. His work is available at Galleria Tubac and also exhibited on their website at www.galleriatubac.com.

IF ARIZONA ARTIST BARBARA “BAYLA” COHEN were a songwriter instead of a painter, she’d write toe-tapping dance party tunes. If she were an actor, she would portray feel-good heroines. Fortunately for art collectors, BayLa (as she prefers to be called), expresses herself with paint on canvas— and she spreads sunshine with each one.

BayLa’s cheerful perspective is intentional: she strives for whimsy even when she encounters dark hours. “I always try to see life as a celebration,” BayLa says. “I have experienced tragedy, but prefer to flip it around to show life’s joy.”

BayLa is a graduate of the prestigious Fashion Institute of Technology and Design in New York City, and began her career in the 1950s as a textile designer.

In the early 1960s, BayLa and her young family relocated from the east coast to California, where she switched from fabric design to fine art painting.

Her education did not go to waste, however. Even today, her work reflects her early training. “My use of bright colors and bold outlining are techniques taken directly from the textile design world,” BayLa explains. “Even my handling of paint Barbara Bayla Cohen “Fiesta De La Luna” is reminiscent of working with fabric dyes.” BayLa moved to Arizona in 1995, and currently maintains a busy studio in Oro Valley.

BayLa’s paints of choice are acrylics and watercolors, and she pushes the media to bold extremes. Every one of BayLa’s images starts in her imagination, since the artist never works directly from life. “My paintings show what I always want life to be,” says the eternal optimist.

“Busy, fun, and cheerful.”

FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS, humans have cultivated gourds not only for functional purposes, but for aesthetic ones as well. New Mexican artist Valerie Milner expands this agrarian tradition with her gourd art innovations.

Originally, Valerie worked in oils and watercolors, but was always tempted to work with gourds because of their organic beauty. It wasn’t until she moved to the Southwest in 1995 that she finally took the plunge. She found a large gourd farm that would provide raw materials and began to study the art form enthusiastically.

Working with gourds is a capricious experience, since their texture can vary from hardwood-like to spongy. Valerie has an inkling of the gourd’s qualities when she selects it, but doesn’t really know what the veggie will be like until she begins the cleaning process. “I clean the gourd up and then study it to see whether it wants to be a vase, a bowl, or a mask,” she explains.

This level of surprise keeps Valerie on her toes, forcing her to constantly finetune her vision as she gets deeper into a project. As a result, every one of Valerie’s pieces is unique. She believes in keeping any natural imperfections in the gourd Valerie Milner “Papaya” for visual excitement.

Valerie’s audacious ornamentation is what sets her work apart from others in her field: her works are embellished with wood burning, dyes, acrylic washes, and turquoise cabochons. For her masks, Valerie also adds fine, natural-colored feathers (gathered during molting season to honor the birds).

Valerie is a student of the world and draws inspiration from the art forms of indigenous cultures. “Just because a work is ‘primitive’ does not mean that it isn’t complex,” Valerie says. “Sometimes the most sophisticated works of art can come from simple materials.”

BY A . STEEBY

ARIZONA ARTIST BRENDA PÉO admits it. She is absolutely “horse crazy”. She also happens to be a talented metal artist who turned her life-long love of horses into fine art.

Brenda is an accomplished jewelry artist, having learned the craft over two decades ago while working at her mother’s jewelry store.

Although she loves the work, by 2006, the artist was searching for an additional creative outlet. After meeting Pat Aguilar, owner of Tubac’s Feminine Mystique gallery, Brenda became inspired to try something new.

Her first effort resulted in a small, wire sculpture of a horse—not too surprising given the artist’s lifetime involvement with horses: “I was lucky. By the age of nine I got my first of many horses,” Brenda says. “They have been a constant in my life one way or another.”

By the time she was completed with her first sculpture, Brenda knew she was on to something special, a notion reinforced by her first public showing of the creations.

“The reaction from the crowd was amazing,” she says, still awestruck by the event. “Everyone was so emotional and connected to my work.”

Since then, the artist has completed over 40 intricate equines, each with their own personality, name, and “foaling date”.

Perhaps it is the special touches in Brenda’s sculpture that speak to people—especially other horse lovers. For example, inside each wire body is a heart, affectionately crafted out of copper wool. “Every one of my horses needs a heart, since real horses always have so much love to give,” the Brenda explains.

Sculpture sizes range from tabletop models to monumental floor versions. You can see both Brenda’s horse sculpture and her fine jewelry at Feminine Mystique gallery in Tubac or online at www.

MANOS IS AN ECLECTIC NEW GALLERY with a clear mission statement of supporting artists and the arts which will enhance, engage and support our creativity and humanity.

Michaelin Otis, author of “Watercolor for the Fun Of It, Painting People,” teaches workshops on watercolor, acrylic and oil painting. As a signature member of the Louisiana Watercolor Society, Taos National Society of Watercolor and the Northern Plains Watercolor Society, Michaelin’s work has been featured in many national publications. She has illustrated three children’s books and has owned and operated “Wrangler” by Michaelin Otis her own gallery and teaching studio for 16 years in Minnesota. She plans to make Arizona her home this fall. Michaelin enjoys using vivid colors to express emotion in her favorite subjects—people and animals. Starting with an abstract design, she uses watercolor in a very thick and fluid manner to create connections from the subject to the background.

Pat Lambrecht-Hould: “My work is about a journey. Primarily abstract; it incorporates a love for experimentation with mixed media and color. Using gold and silver leafing as a reflected light source under the acrylic glazes creates exciting and constantly changing images with one’s natural light source. The work is a process of building multiple design elements of collage and highly textured areas. It is a layered fusion of leafing, collage and acrylic glazes.”

Michelle Marie’s Native American paintings exhibit a myriad of emotions from confidence, intensity and hatred to acceptance, passion and spirituality.

“Images occur in the head and the heart,” she explains. Using only sepia, the lack of contrasting vivid colors invites the viewer to examine the entire figure.

Other works have a swath or two of brighter colors while some have a contrast of light and dark to draw a viewer away from the faces or, alternatively, to focus the faces clearly, creating either intensity or mystery, thus helping Michelle Marie to tell their stories.

Stacey Hayes’ inspiration for jewelry designs comes from the beautiful materials she personally selects. The colors, textures and feel of sterling silver, cultured fresh water pearls and semi precious gemstones dictate how each piece is created. Stacey strives to create necklaces that complement and enhance a woman’s neckline.

Dikki Van Helsland has been working in Batik since 1974. Batik is an ancient art form most often using cotton or silk as the base on which wax is used as a resist. Dyes and the melted wax are used alternately to create the colors and transparency in the design. Van Helsland’s inspiration comes from desert settings, both manmade and natural.

CAROL CURRY HAS A SPECIAL GIFT for transforming stones, charms, and primitivelooking objects into strands of enchanting wearable art.

The artist favors stones and objects that have an ethnic and primitive feel, like hand-cut, matte stones from Afghanistan or antique silver crosses from Ethiopia. She particularly likes unpolished lapis and light green jade, and uses their imperfect surfaces to add visual interest to her works. “My goal is to make these look like they are hundreds of years old,” Carol explains.

As a total right-brain thinker, Carol approaches her beaded creations with a sense of joy, getting lost in her work for hours when the creative muse inspires her. Each one-of-akind concept has an underlying spiritual meaning, adding to her beaded art’s appeal.

When Carol begins her process, she sees in her mind’s eye what she’s going to make, drawing inspiration from the beads. “It’s got to be happening,” the artist insists. “The beads let me know where they want to go.”

In a previous career, Carol was a behavioral health professional, and stumbled across beading when she became intrigued by a turquoise necklace she saw in a store. Carol began designing her own beaded necklaces, and found that people repeatedly wanted to buy her innovative compositions.

Today she sells her creations in galleries and resorts all over the west, including her signature store, C. Curry Studio & Gallery in Tubac.

In addition to Carol’s necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, C. Curry Studio & Gallery features ethnic art, paintings, basketry, pottery, and fused glass. The gallery also carries the work of acclaimed silver artist Doris King.

C. Curry Studio & Gallery is located Tubac’s new La Entrada Center, right next to the Visitor’s Center.

BY A . STEEBY

ARIZONA ARTIST KIM WALKER creates work as a celebration of nature as well as an extension of the metaphoric lessons nature reveals.

Kim rejoices in the natural world by including leaves, petals, and other organic fragments in the surfaces of her paintings. She also pens a poem to deepen the meaning she is trying to convey.

An outdoorswoman at heart, Kim turned to nature eight years ago to assuage her grief after the death of her mother.

During this introspective time, Kim says it was as if she was experiencing nature’s gifts for the first time. She was comforted by the hope she felt inherent in the natural world, and wanted to reflect this emotion in her work.

“Regardless of your place in life—young or old, happy or sad, rich or poor—nature gives a profound lesson in hope. For example, the desert can be dry and withered, but with one good rain it will come alive. Even a falling leaf has a story to tell.”

Kim’s inspiration from nature is evident in this verse from her work Offerings: Gentle breeze Embrace me Soft rain Bathe me Moonlight Calm me Sunlight Save me To share this inspiration, Kim creates geometric spaces that overlap each other while loosely following the natural lines of the organic elements she introduces. Her palette runs from rich oranges to cooling blues as well as soothing colors like those in sunsets or desert landscapes.

“I invite people to get close to my art. I hope they will contemplate the nuances of the natural elements and feel free to discover the textures with their hands. My desire is to connect my viewers to nature with great reverence in an unexpected realm.”

Kim’s work is available at Cobalt Fine Arts in Tubac and online at www.cobaltfinearts.com.

Roy Purcell A FAIRLY RECENT ADDITION TO TUBAC, Purcell Galleries of Fine Art (just moved to 16 Tubac Road) brings a fresh venue of fine art to the historical community. The Mystic Southwest landscapes of Roy Purcell are featured along with vibrant desert floral watercolors by Las Vegas artist, Cheryl Weinfurtner along with fresh watercolor rural scenes and landscapes by well known painter, teacher and author Carl Purcell.

Filling out the three dimensional venue of the gallery are the unusual segmented wood bowls of Ron Mulligan, which takes the art of wood turning to new levels of beauty and craftsmanship.

Beautiful flowing mixed media abstracts by Barbara Roeming, fine ceramics by Pahrump Valley Potters and Swanson Ceramics, and the nature etchings of Loren Purcell help grace the space. Once you’ve visited the gallery you’ll meet Brent Land, the Director and one of our more versatile artists. Brent does mixed media & fused glass.

Beautiful silver and stone jewelry by The Village Silversmith (Rockport, MA) and hand crafted pearl and turquoise creations by Ross and Dianne Purcell bring a sparkle to the gallery.

If the name “Purcell” sounds redundant here you best come by to view the art of a very talented artistic family. If you weren’t born into the family you may be adopted, whether you’re an artist or a client. Our family continues to grow and flourish.

If you explore beyond the walls of the gallery (a special tour) you’ll find Roy Purcell has produced over 1,000 subjects in the etching medium. As an author and lover of the desert southwest he has created over 500 ink and watercolor studies of native flora and fauna, which is the basis for a natural history of the desert Portraits of Nature. His love for Native American history has resulted in one book on Arizona’s Walpai Indians Long Journey from Wikame’ and a forthcoming volume Voices from the Dust – the Wisdom of Native American. His in depth study of human cultural history is found in The Great Goddess and the Hero’s Journey, This Man from Galilee and L’Chaim L’Or The Long Journey Home. Though these works are not normally featured on the walls of the gallery, make it a point to stop in and take a behind the scenes tour of the products of an unusually productive, ageless and creative personality.

Introduce yourself to Brent or one of our knowledgeable Art Consultants and have yourself a wonderful experience in our new gallery at 16 Tubac Road.

Victor Stevens Studio/Gallery A RT IST A S E X P LOR ER

n

BY A . STEEBY

EVERY ONE OF VICTOR STEVENS’ PAINTINGS IS A JOURNEY, and not even the artist himself knows where each expedition will end. “Every artist must have an over-arching reason to paint,” Victor declares passionately. “For me, the reason I paint is to discover.”

Victor’s process often allows compositions to develop organically without initial sketches.

Each canvas becomes the painting it should be, without following a micro-managed master plan.

With St. Francis (pictured), Victor had no idea what expression would end up on the saint’s face. He let the nature of the image reveal itself. “It is more challenging and gratifying, to explore without a map,” Victor explains.

Shaping and molding the canvas, conducting an orchestra of different colors and brushes; discovering substance, ignoring the arbitrary, Victor forges within plasticity until something ‘magical’ happens, a completed work of art.

Victor is the ‘real thing’, and all the more rare because he remains an explorer through his work; every canvas is a means to chart a new course.

“In my 40 years as an artist, I have rarely repeated myself with my artwork. I love the act of continuous discovery through my art.”

Victor’s work has won awards in various juried competitions including “Best of Show” and he has had numerous one man shows. His painterly explorations can be found in private and public collections worldwide.

Universal in scope with a southwest flavor due to the power of his environment, Victor’s art ranges “St. Francis” from landscapes to shamanic figures in originals and limited edition giclee prints. Victor’s relationship with the Sonoran Desert doesn’t engulf his art, but instead subtlety supports his vision. The artist recently opened his own studio gallery in the heart of Tubac.

CAN FINE ART ALSO BE FUNCTIONAL? Master wood artisans Christine and Ron Sisco prove that it can. The Siscos, owners of Z Forest Gallery in Tubac, create sublime hardwood furniture and kitchen wares with fine turquoise inlaid in the natural cracks and veins in the wood.

Christine developed the concept of enhancing the wood with stone based on ancient Chinese practices she learned in art history class. “In the Ming Dynasty, cracks in porcelain were often filled with gold,” she explains. “I decided to try the same thing with turquoise in our artisan wood works.”

To affix the turquoise, the Siscos use a space-age solution: they adhere the stone with a food-safe epoxy developed by the United States government in the 1960’s. This adhesive hardens and protects the stone so that it will stand up to the rigors of everyday use.

The Siscos’ work is made exclusively from North American hardwoods including birdseye maple, black walnut, cherry, and mesquite. “These are all hard, tight-grained woods,” explains Christine. “We Mesquite Salad Bowl & Fingers with Turquoise Inlay only use wood from trees that provide food products, so all our creations are non-toxic and safe.”

Christine and Ron only use Sleeping Beauty turquoise for their inlay.

The Siscos choose this stone for its tranquil blue color and lack of black matrix. “We only want the pure color of turquoise next to our woods for maximum contrast in the finished piece,” Christine says.

With this marriage of wood and turquoise, Christine and Ron have developed a sophisticated line of items for the home. In addition to custom furniture, their most popular pieces are spoons, bread boards, boxes, lamps, mirrors, tables, and wine racks.

Z Forest Gallery is located at 26 Tubac Road and is open yeararound. The gallery also takes custom orders and will ship anywhere in the United States.

Old Presidio T raders FEATURING SOUTHERN ARIZONA’S LARGEST SELECTION OF RESERVATION PAWN JEWELRY n BY A. STEEBY

WITH THOUSANDS OF PIECES of authentic Native American jewelry in stock, the selection at Old Presidio Traders is truly mind-boggling: 1800 rings, 1400 bracelets, 200 buckles, 50 concho belts, 140 bolo ties, 400 watchbands, 35 squash blossoms, and 60 silver bead necklaces.

“Old ‘pawn’ jewelry is not obtained from pawn shops; instead, this jewelry is put up at traditional Native American trading posts in exchange for a cash loan or to keep the jewelry in a safe place. About 85% of the jewelry is reclaimed by the owners. The remaining jewelry is either declared “dead pawn” and sold, or is held for an additional time in hopes that the owner will retrieve it.

What is so compelling about pawn jewelry? These are special pieces worn by the Native Americans themselves, and not created just for tourists. Many are one-of-kind. Old Presidio Traders has a three-decade-long working relationship with six different trading posts in New Mexico and northern Arizona, and buys every piece that they can.

As a long-time member of the Indian Arts and Crafts Association, Old Presidio Traders guarantees all jewelry to be authentic, Indianhandmade, quality pieces. They also have several different Navajo families they work with directly who make fine jewelry for the store.

Old Presidio Traders has been located in Tubac for 26 years, and also features other Native American art like kachinas, fetishes, rugs, and pottery. Their inventory constantly changes, but you can view a representative sample online at www.oldpresidiotraders.com. If you don’t see what you want online, call or email for photographs of available pieces.

City Insight: T ucson A BR I EF H I STORY

AS ONE OF THE OLDEST TOWNS IN AMERICA, Tucson has long attracted visitors and new residents alike with its wonderful climate and desert beauty.

Tucson’s diverse mix of Native American, Mexican, Spanish and AngloAmerican cultures reflects the area’s long history.

The area around Tucson has been inhabited continuously for more than 12,000 years. Prehistoric hunters, tool-makers and farmers preceded the Pima Indians, who occupied the region when Spanish missionaries arrived in 1692. The name “Tucson” comes from the Pima word sounding like “Stook-zone,” meaning “spring at the foot of Black Mountain”. The first Spanish outpost was built in the area in 1775.

By the beginning of the 19th century, Native Americans, Mexicans and Spaniards coexisted in a largely agrarian society isolated from much of the outside world. Following the Mexican Revolution in 1812, Tucson officially became part of Mexico.

Once the United States successfully negotiated the Gadsden Purchase in 1854, southern Arizona became a part of Arizona Territory, with Tucson serving as the territory’s capital from 1867 to 1877. By 1880, Tucson was connected to the rest of the country by train, bringing in new settlers from back East.

By 1900, Tucson began publicizing the healthful effects of the dry, sunny climate in order to entice people to visit or relocate to the area.

Arizona entered the Union in 1912, becoming the 48th state.

Today, Tucson is a metropolis of over a million people. The city hosts thousands of visitors annually, many of whom are drawn by the beautiful cactus forests and lush mountains. With 360 days of sunshine annually, Tucson offers a perfect backdrop for gallery-hopping, jeep tours, and of course, golf at one of the area’s many world-famous courses. Modern though the city may be, Tucson still honors its cultural roots and frontier heritage through its traditions, architecture and spirit.

BY A . STEEBY

WHEN IN TUCSON, BE SURE TO ADD DESERT ARTISANS’ GALLERY to your mustsee list. For 20 years, Desert Artisans’ has been a landmark gallery in Tucson’s art scene.

Desert Artisans’ Gallery is Tucson’s longest-running artist cooperative, featuring work from over 60 of the state’s awardwinning artists. The gallery is a treasure trove for collectors and interior designers, offering works in many media and genres. From oil paintings of Western landscapes to handmade glass objets d’art, Desert Artisans’ is sure to please every sensibility.

As a cooperative, Desert Artisans’ is operated by the artists the gallery represents. This makes for an enlightening shopping experience, explains Gallery President Susan Libby: “A different artist staffs the gallery each day so visitors have a wonderful opportunity to discuss art with the people who created it.”

The gallery only represents artists who have passed through the cooperative’s juried admittance process, resulting in an outstanding group dedicated to providing an enjoyable art experience. The artists commit to a schedule of five shows a year, so there is always new work to enjoy.

“Whether you live in Tucson or are visiting the Old Pueblo, we invite you to experience our one-of-a-kind gallery,” says Susan. Desert Artisans’ Gallery is located at 6536 E. Tanque Verde Road, in the La Plaza Shoppes across from Trail Dust Town and behind Sakura Restaurant.

BY A . STEEBY

BY COMBINING THEIR TALENTS on every piece they create, Pattie and Mark Johnson marry metal and glass to create spirited sculpture that has delighted collectors for over 20 years. Demand for the duo’s work has been so great that the Johnsons now offer two locations to showcase their work.

In mid-2006, Pattie and Mark relocated to a spacious gallery on Tucson’s east side that features their work plus fine artwork by 15 award-winning artists. Interest from clients prompted the Johnsons to also open a working studio in midtown where guests can observe Pattie and Mark as they create. “Our clients really enjoy watching the process of making sculpture,” Pattie says. “We have people who sit down and visit for hours.”

Mark’s role is to construct structural metal forms, while Pattie adds color by incorporating her sophisticated glass work. The artists have received world-wide acclaim for their mystical petroglyph statues, which are based on prehistoric Sonoran Desert cave drawings. The Johnsons also feature stunning wall sculpture and abstract, geometric statuary.

Pattie and Mark Johnson The Johnsons embrace diverse glasswork methods including stained glass, dichroic glass, and fused glass. “Fused glass is a wonderful technique,” says Pattie. “First, we arrange colored glass in a pattern, and then we heat it in a kiln at about 1550 degrees. We open the kiln when the glass is hot and rake the colors. It’s kind of like painting with glass inside the kiln.”

You can visit the Glass Illusions gallery showroom at 6530 East Tanque Verde Road, Suite 130, in the La Plaza Shoppes. The new Glass Illusions studio is located at 3234 North Dodge, and features Pattie and Mark hard at work on gallery pieces and commissions. For more information, try their website at www.glassillusionsstudio.com.

Covington Gallery FEATURING FINE 19TH- AND 20TH-CENTURY AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN ART

n

BY A. STEEBY

COVINGTON GALLERY’S SELECTION of 19th and 20th-century American and European paintings, watercolors, and prints, provides fine art seldom available to collectors in the Southwest. The Gallery also provides fine art appraisals, framing, consignment services and conservation & restoration services for paintings and works on paper.

Gallery owner, Wayne Kielsmeier, has a wealth of knowledge about American and European art of this period and finds that the history behind the works adds to the joy of collecting. Wayne is a consummate researcher, unearthing as much artist information as he can for every piece he acquires or brokers for a client. “I find as much information as possible because it adds a dimension of historical and intrinsic value to the art,” he says.

Wayne welcomes the opportunity to share his expertise with people who have an interest in fine art. He frequently advises people who are unsure of the value of the art they have and the gallery doors are open for courtesy, walk-in evaluations on a daily basis.

A visit to Covington Gallery is satisfying and low-key. Wayne strives to create a friendly atmosphere where people are comfortable asking questions about the work, the artist, and the background behind the art. Wayne feels satisfaction in knowing that when a client leaves with a painting, they also leave with a part of American or European history.

Part of the reason Wayne is able to create a pleasant art experience is because he understands what it is like to be a collector. He opened his gallery 17 years ago to take his passion for art full-time, walking away from a successful career in the health-care sector to do so. Today, you can find Wayne in the gallery, ready to help you learn more about fine art. You can also see a sample of the Covington collection online at www.covingtongallery.com.

WHO SAYS FINE ART CAN’T BE FUN? Tucson’s Gallery West offers Koshare carvings by famed Hopi Kachina carver Neil David, Sr. that are especially designed to tickle your funny bone.

Koshares are traditional Hopi clowns, known for their hilarious, mischievous antics. “Koshares do everything a good Hopi person does not do,” says Gallery West’s Pat Messier. “They act like naughty children, throw food, and are allaround funny troublemakers.”

Neil is an accomplished Kachina carver from Polacca, a town at the base of the Hopi First Mesa. Especially well-known for his Koshares, Neil delights collectors nationwide with his witty carvings. “Neil’s genius is that his great sense of humor and personality translates into his Koshares,” says Pat. “We frequently have customers see Neil’s work and laugh out loud.”

Neil carves in the traditional way, using cottonwood root for his creations. He does not set out to carve a specific image.

Instead, Neil lets the shape of his “Nose Picker” Neil David Sr. materials guide him. “He says that each piece of cottonwood tells him what he needs to carve,” explains Pat. Neil also works two-dimensionally, rendering his playful clowns in ink and paint.

Gallery West is located at the foothills of Tucson’s Catalina Mountains, and specializes in fine antique and contemporary Native American art. Neil’s work is always in great demand, so Gallery West works with enthusiasts from all over the country who seek a Koshare for their collection. “We show Neil’s Koshares on our website,” says Pat, “but you can also call us for photos by e-mail or to check availability.”

Grogan Gallery of Fine Art PRE S E NT ING T HE WO RK OF PA I N TER DON W EST

ONE OF THE BEST TERMS TO DESCRIBE DON WEST’S paintings would be “nonobjective”; another might be “illusion”: paintings that sometimes appear to be something they’re not, where composition, texture, and the creation of something visually thrilling are more important than the subject itself.

Don has spent 35 years mastering the many mediums needed to meet his non-objective objectives. Oils, wax, found materials, papiermâché, watercolor, and acrylic all reside in his creativity toolkit, ready to be employed in one of his evocative paintings. Such strategy comes from his theater background.

Since Don develops each painting with layers of texture and color, he often plans two to three steps ahead so that under-layers support upperlayer effects. This is the extent of his planning, however, since Don prefers to allow inspiration and incident to drive a painting’s evolution.

Given the unrestrained “Rim” acrylic on board 48”x 60” nature of his work, Don is determined to remain grounded to the technical aspects of creating art. Often he starts over to refresh his skills and purpose. “I get so far afield just working out of my head that I like to check back with reality every now and again,” Don explains. “I look at basic things like drawing, how clean and developed my line is.”

Don looks for the same qualities in his own work that he would seek in the work of others. “A bit of a formalist, I ask myself: Is this a good painting? Is there harmony? Is it in balance? When one of my paintings is done, all the questions are answered, it rings of truth, and that is beautiful.”

Such cerebral analysis is required because Don has deeper reasons for painting than simply making a living. “This is my way of contributing something beautiful to enrich the lives of others,” he says. “Painting is one of the ways in which I love the world.”

You can view new work from Don West during a solo exhibition from October 4th to October 31st and throughout the year at Grogan Gallery of Fine Art.

TOHONO O’ODHAM PAINTER MIKE CHIAGO offers a glimpse of village life with his paintings, sharing the Tohono O’odham way with the rest of the world.

The tribal name Tohono O’odham translates to “Desert People”—a fitting description for the inhabitants of the Sonoran Desert community straddling the border of Arizona and Mexico. Mike’s paintings document daily Tohono O’odham life, revealing the community’s simple, balanced existence in the desert Southwest.

Tohono O’odham traditions and culture are the heart of Mike’s work.

Unlike the ceremonies performed by the Navajo and Pueblo Indians, Tohono O’odham customs are largely unknown outside of southern Arizona.

Most Tohono O’odham ceremonies are not showy, dramatic affairs; rather, Tohono O’odham rituals are simple, down-to-earth celebrations of the seasons of life. Saguaro cactus fruit harvesting, wine making, and dancing are all subjects Mike has portrayed with his “Rain Dancers,” watercolor, 36”x 28”, by Michael Chaigo distinctive, engaging style.

Mike began painting as a young man after he served a tour of duty as a Marine in Vietnam. He is self-taught and has achieved national acclaim for his work, one of only a few Tohono O’odham artists to do so. His credits include cover art for Arizona Highways magazine, poster art for the Heard Museum in Phoenix, and work featured in exhibits at the Amerind Foundation and the Arizona State Museum at the University of Arizona.

Tucson’s Silverbell Trading is home to many of Mike’s finest works.

The mission of the gallery—to specialize in fine local and native arts created in balance with nature and with respect for tradition—is perfectly aligned with Mike’s subject matter and philosophy. The gallery also features Mike’s work online at www.silverbelltrader.com

Bahti Indian Arts IND IA N A RTS

n

BY M . BA H TI

THERE WAS A TIME when people buying Indian jewelry –whether to assemble a collection or bring back a souvenir – thought they were buying ‘ethnic art’ or ‘tribal art’. Today the work is recognized as being the result of individual expression and creativity – rooted in cultural traditions but reflective of the individual and the times.

Indian jewelry artists have always sought out unusual and fine materials –whether turquoise from mines in the Southwest or spiny oyster shell from Baja California. That search has expanded to red and orange coral from distant seas, purple sugilite from the Kalahari Desert, turquoise from China and the Middle East... even meteorites. New tools and techniques continue to allow Indian jewelers to innovate, refine their work and create fine Michael Roanhorse Crawford jewelry that stands on its own. Faceted gemstones, anticlastic raising, platinumsilver alloys...a dizzying menu of possibilities but in all cases they are filtered through the individual Indian jewelry artist, adopted and adapted to suit their tastes with the result being a unique work of art.

For the buyer the result can be something like sensory overload.

A bit of advance reading helps as does having enough time to see a cross-section of jewelry to acclimate your eye. When you are ready to buy make sure the salesperson puts down, in writing, on the receipt, important information including whether or not the turquoise is natural or treated (or real!), whether it is Indian handmade (versus merely strung or assembled) and any other bit of information you have been given, such as the technique, the name of the maker or the design.

Work in stone and shell is part of an ancient tradition; silverworking was a technique learned from the Europeans who invaded their land and much of the current work is an interesting blend of the two traditions. Mosaics once set on shell are now inlaid in silver. The late Charles Loloma, a Hopi artist of immeasurable talent and international recognition, sought new and exotic materials for his inlays as his work evolved. Others like Navajo jeweler Albert Nells, prefer to use only materials mentioned in the Navajo Creation stories, materials

reflecting the four directions. He uses designs based upon the borders woven for Navajo saddleblankets, yet the result, to the non-Navajo eye is a very contemporary piece of jewelry.

Many Indian jewelers learned from family members. Traditionally children were not taught unless they expressed an interest and had demonstrated the necessary patience – usually evidenced by Fannie Nampeyo their willingness to sit quietly and watch.

Some were self-taught, like Navajo silversmith Gene Jackson, who had to sneak his father’s tools when he had the chance. Others learned in the classroom, which might mean a class at a university, tribal guild or community college. Some started as youngsters while others took it up after they lost their job.

Similarly some prefer to wholesale their work to dealers and traders while others look forward to annual Indian arts shows and exhibitions across the West where they can sell direct to buyers. Their decision to do so is based partly on the chance to sell at retail but it is largely about social interaction. The silversmiths find out what folks are looking for, get valuable feedback on their work, have a chance to network with other artists and get to meet the people who appreciate and purchase their work, taking it home to wear and cherish. As more then one Indian artist has told me, “it’s a lot of work to do the shows, but I come back recharged”. And of course it is a wonderful experience for the buyer to meet the artists who continue to create these works of art in silver and stone. www. A ZColle c torsGuid e .com

Tangerine Gallery SOPHISTICATED CONTEMPORARY ART AND FINE TRADITIONAL CRAFT

n

BY A. STEEBY

TANGERINE GALLERY IN TUCSON is a mecca for shoppers looking for art and finely made craft with an elegant Southwestern style. The gallery opened in October 2006, and features an eclectic mix of contemporary art and traditional craftsmanship in their inviting showroom.

The gallery’s outdoor sculpture garden is reason enough to stop by.

Gallery owner Susan Warren has selected outstanding contemporary sculptors to provide art for the garden, including works in metal and stone by acclaimed sculptors Steven Derks and Ed Davenport.

On the way to the garden, you can also enjoy the fine paintings and photography that grace the gallery walls.

Another of Tangerine’s treats is the gallery’s extensive selection of hand-made traditional craft.

Susan applies her knowledge gleaned from years importing hammered copper to carefully choose which items will be included in the Tangerine collection. “All of our pieces are elegant, hand-made items,” Susan says. “We have a collection that is stylistically out-of-the-ordinary to beautifully complement Southwestern tastes and décor.”

Items in the Tangerine handcraft collection include hand-hammered Santa Clara del Cobre copper from Mexico; fine Majolica ceramics by Gorky Gonzalez; handmade silver jewelry from Taxco, Mexico; and vintage Saltillo serape blankets, many of which are between 40 and 80 years old.

Tangerine Gallery is located near Tucson’s Fort Lowell furniture district and offers convenient parking. The gallery and sculpture garden are also fully wheelchair accessible. “We invite you to come by,” says Susan. “Our atmosphere is beautiful and our staff is very welcoming.

The most frequent comment I hear visitors say is ‘Wow’.”

Lynn Rae Lowe S PE C IA L IZ ING IN T HE F INE A RT OF M ETA L COLOR ATI ON

SOME PEOPLE ACCEPT CHANGE AS OPPORTUNITY. LynnRae Lowe is one such person.

She has intuitively allowed her creativity to flow from one artistic discipline to another working as a potter, tile muralist, printmaker, and bronze sculptor. She has received national awards and international recognition for her dancing, spiritually uplifting sylph designs.

In 2000, she had to re-invent herself after her husband’s, and partner’s, death while remaining true to the skills that made her successful: unusual uses of transparent patinas over metal surfaces. LynnRae expanded her Judaic and decorative collections, designed corporate awards, created public art, built furniture and won awards for her home installations. Still, she longed for a new, more personal way to express her creative journey. She found it with “Inner Landscapes”.

LynnRae explains: “My newest series is the result of taking what I know, color, and combining it with the media I have become most comfortable with, metal. Paintbrushes are seldom used. The image emerges as I hold the painting, often as if the metal canvas is my dance partner. The image is thus a relationship between my movement, memory and the material being used.”

Stainless steel, aluminum and copper become canvases saturated with color and dancing with captured light. The series is dedicated to her mentor, watercolorist Bruce McGrew who advised, “Don’t paint the light, paint what the light does” Kartchner Cavern 22x46 The fall of 2007, will be one of opportunity and change with the opening of the Metal Arts Village (MAV). LynnRae Lowe’s Metal Arts Gallery and Sculpture Garden will feature her work and other well-known and emerging artists. “Creating this community is a dream come true as I have long seen the advantages of likeminded, and equally talented metal artists offering their patrons a full palette of functional and decorative metal arts while sharing and learning from one another.”

The MAV community will be a great opportunity to find a unique variety of metal arts in one location.

Morning St ar Traders EXCEPTIONAL ANTIQUE AND CONTEMPORARY NATIVE AMERICAN ART

n

BY A. STEEBY

ARE YOU A FAN OF EARLY TURQUOISE AND SILVER? Morning Star Traders in Tucson has one of the finest collections of old pawn jewelry available in the Southwest.

Morning Star is owned by Native American art expert Rick Rosenthal and his wife, Mary Beth. The Rosenthals hand-select only the finest 1890’s to pre-1940s pawn jewelry for their collection.

Pawn jewelry is so named because it was placed as collateral at a trading post in exchange for cash. When the pawn went “dead”, so to speak, it became available for sale. “These are special, early pieces that were worn by the Indians themselves,” says Rick.

The Morning Star collection includes very rare pieces, including those made with ingot silver. “Ingot silver was crafted by melting flatware or silver coins, both American coinage and Mexican pesos,” Rick explains. “The melted silver was poured into a sandstone mold and cooled. Then the piece was hammered by hand until it was finished.”

Morning Star also works directly with a handful of expert Navajo silversmiths, many of whom have been creating fine jewelry for the gallery for over 20 years. These artists employ historic methods to honor the look and feel of early jewelry, an ideal option for clients who have harder-to-find sizes. “Most vintage bracelets are between 5 1⁄2” and 6 1⁄2”, says Mary Beth. “If you need a different size, you can find a nice, traditionallyinspired bracelet here.”

Morning Star Traders also has a sizeable selection of antique Navajo blankets and rugs, historic Southwestern baskets, modern Tohono O’odham baskets (purchased directly from the artists), historic and contemporary Pueblo pottery, and early Spanish Colonial furniture.

Amy Kyle F INE C E RA M IC SC U L PT U RE WI TH A TE X TUR A L EDG E

ALTHOUGH ARIZONA ARTIST AMY KYLE creates three-dimensional artwork, referring to her as a sculptor somehow seems inadequate. Perhaps a more fitting description would be a “texture specialist”, since her mixed media surfaces and robust color choices yield creations that compel you to study, touch and experience each one The main components of Amy’s work are raku and high fired clays, but the ceramic material is really just a starting point.

Amy augments layers of clay with oxides, stains, or glazes, often using an open flame technique to finish the piece.

Amy’s mastery of ceramic materials allows her to coax her desired results into being. For example, she may fire pieces numerous times to achieve a certain effect. Once her pieces are fired, the artist may further accentuate the sculpture with fused glass or fiber art segments. Her ability to give unity to disparate materials is what makes Amy’s unique artwork appeal to collectors.

Amy creates pieces ranging from two-dimensional wall sculpture to substantial outdoor public art installations. Regardless of size or intended location, all her work has a unifying theme. “I am constantly experimenting and growing as an artist,” Amy says. “But one consistent quality of my work is always texture.”

Amy’s skillful and innovative techniques are evident in her newest series, “Cairns.” Traditionally, a cairn is a “Cairn” detail man-made landmark of piled stones. Amy interprets these ancient monuments in clay, accentuating the pieces with textured crawl glazes and richly colored mason stains.

You can see Amy’s work in person at celebrated art festivals throughout the Southwest during the year. She will also send photographs of current works, and welcomes commission requests. For more information, you can reach her via e-mail at kylemixedmedia@msn.com.

Lis a Larr abee F INE A RT C U STO M PO RTR A I TUR E

n

A . STEEBY

WHEN YOU THINK OF A LOVED ONE, do you ponder their clothes or their hairstyle?

Or does something more hard to define come to mind?

Master portrait artist Lisa Larrabee believes that a painted portrait can do more than simply record mere externals; it can reveal the spark within. “Often portraits or photographs seem only to document what someone wore or what they were doing on a particular day,” Lisa explains. “My goal is to create works of art that capture the essence of their personality.”

Fittingly, Lisa’s process begins where photographic portraiture ends, by taking snapshots. During the photo shoot, Lisa takes hundreds of images, looking for those where the character of the subject comes through. Why does she take so many? “We get more representative photos after we’ve been at it awhile,” says Lisa.

“At first, people are really aware of the camera, but then they sort of forget about it and let their “Harvest” 24”x 20” personality emerge.”

Throughout the whole process, Lisa carefully observes the individual’s traits, and then artistically interprets these intangible data points. Lisa also takes commissions to create posthumous portraits in someone’s memory. “I prefer to have multiple reference images and a conversation about the person to get a well-rounded visual in my mind,” she explains.

Although portraits are meaningful to those who commission them, Lisa’s work also stands alone as fine art. This is especially true of the artist’s conceptual “landscape portraits”, where Lisa superimposes a portrait onto a scenic background. In these works, the she juxtaposes images from the foreground and the background, creating a rulebending portrait experience.

Lisa is awestruck by the importance of creating family heirlooms. “I am providing more than a portrait,” she says with gratification. “I create a narrative of someone’s life.”

City Insight: Phoenix F E AT U RING D OW NTOW N F IRST FR I DAYS

n

BY A . STEEBY

FOR THE HOTTEST, HIPPEST ART EXPERIENCE in the Valley, mark your calendar for the first Friday of every month. That’s the day when downtown Phoenix hosts First Fridays, an art walk with a Bohemian twist.

During First Fridays, thousands of people flood downtown galleries and studios—ready to bask in the non-corporate feel of art direct from the source. The fiesta occurs around the formerly dog-eared area of Grand and 7th Avenues, now home to a legion of creatives who have revitalized the neighborhoods with galleries, studios, and art spaces.

Art is everywhere during the event. Artists who live in the area will even empty out their living rooms and hang art for sale. “First Fridays is an opportunity to find good, edgy work by young artists with massive amounts of artistic energy,” says Chris Santa Maria, co-president of Eye Lounge, a contemporary art space in downtown. “Plus, the art is affordable because you are working directly with the artists.”

Additional spark is added by local underground musicians, streetside tchotchke vendors, and delicious food. A free shuttle is provided

by Artlink, Inc., a group devoted to promoting the downtown art scene.

P hoenix Airport Museum GREAT AIRPORTS DESERVE GREAT ART and the artwork in the new 125,000-square-foot Rental Car Center (RCC) at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is a shining example of that premise. The building and its artwork are a tribute to Arizona’s light and space.

Inside, Ed Carpenter’s Crosstitch, created from dichroic glass, aluminum and stainless steel, is the centerpiece of Public Art at the RCC. As the sun moves through days and seasons, skylights gather light into the building. Walls and ledges catch the light to emphasize the ascent/descent through canyon-like spaces.

Outside, Sine Waves, the steel fence created by Al Price, uses pattern and shadow to create “kinetic art.” The sun provides a shifting singlepoint light source, and the pedestrian/vehicular traffic supplies the motion.

Both of these works were commissioned in a process managed by the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture in collaboration with the Phoenix Airport Museum. A Phoenix ordinance authorizes up to one percent of construction monies to be used for art commissions and purchases.

Airport art collection: Al Price, Sine Waves, In addition, 86 works of art by 22 Arizona artists 8” x 1/4 mile, steel fence, 2006 Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture Public were purchased to hang in four corridors of the main Art Program purchase floor. Artists throughout the state created paintings and prints to reflect cultural and geographical diversity.

The Phoenix Airport Museum manages the airport’s art collection, exhibition program and Phoenix Aviation Archive. The museum’s mission is to enhance the public’s experience by creating memorable environments that promote Arizona’s unique artistic and cultural heritage.

At Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport’s three terminals and the Car Rental Center, most art and exhibitions are accessible 24 hours a day. The Deer Valley and Goodyear airports are open 6 am to 9 pm daily. Outdoor art may be viewed anytime.

Diane Barbee J OY F U L PA INT INGS A L IV E W IT H COLOR

BY A . STEEBY

INFECTIOUSLY CHEERFUL. ÜBER-ENERGETIC. GLORIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC. How can you possibly pick one description for Phoenix painter Diane Barbee when there are so many that would fit the bill? Diane, the antithesis of a stereotypical brooding artist, has only one goal: to create paintings that make people happy. “Art doesn’t have to be dark to be real,” she says with a smile.

Beneath her infectiously-cheerfulüber-energetic-gloriously-optimistic demeanor is a serious painter with years of formal training and a herculean work ethic. Even raising five children (and three dogs) doesn’t deter her from her lifework; Diane still devotes over forty hours a week to painting. She also remains a dedicated student, particularly learning from the works of Van Gogh and Matisse.

Unlike artists who concentrate on a specific subject matter, Diane’s driving force is the interplay between the color, the texture, and most importantly, the activity inherent in a scene. Regardless of subject, whether a landscape or wildlife from the Serengeti, every image sambas with technicolor movement. Diane opts to work with acrylics to achieve her results, as she finds that the medium’s fast-drying qualities encourage her to paint with spontaneity and intuition.

Dynamo Diane has participated in the distinguished Celebration of Fine Art show in Scottsdale, and currently shows with Jane Hamilton Fine Art in Tucson and Sunrise Gallery in Wickenburg.

She also teaches art at her children’s school, volunteers for animal rescue organizations, rides horses, and maintains 22 rosebushes. “My life, my children, and my husband are such blessings. I want to share my joy by creating art that helps people to smile.”

Tad Smith C HAOS M E E TS OR DER

BY A . STEEBY

YOUNG TAD SMITH GREW 10 FEET TALL the day his third-grade teacher displayed his exceptional artwork for the whole class to see.

Through this act of recognition, Tad’s teacher taught him that art is an incredible medium to communicate with others.

Now, decades later, Tad Smith is a successful fine artist who remembers his teacher’s powerful lesson. He vows to create work that turns the art lover into an active participant—not just a passive viewer. “To me, perfect art is a 50/50 endeavor.

The artist brings style and craftsmanship, and the audience brings their background feelings and thoughts,” he explains.

Peace Tad engages observers in his artistic conversations by creating highly textural works that are part painting and part sculpture. His three-dimensional surfaces beckon the audience to join in the fun; most people have an irresistible urge to run their fingers over them.

To achieve this level of tactile delight, Tad allows himself free reign when choosing his media.

Natural forms like seashells, Sedona rocks, or flowers may be combined with industrial building materials to create the right mix for maximum Love involvement. Tad cuts and carves each surface to create a compelling texture and then adds color to heighten the intrigue of the piece.

“I try to take a simple composition and add layers of complexity,” Tad says, still drawing from his grade school life-lesson of shared communication. “This way, the audience can really get into the work and decide what it means based on the way they experience it themselves.”

Tad’s art can be viewed at his Phoenix Gallery, “Studeo Tad” and at other galleries in Scottsdale.

BY A . STEEBY

Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Set, Pendant: 1 5/16” H X 3⁄4”W, & Earrings: 1/8” H x 1⁄2” W, 14K Gold

ARIZONA ARTIST ANN TURPIN THAYER makes jewelry that transcends the label of “craft”. Her wire and stone works are made with such inspiration that they can justifiably be called fine art.

All of Ann’s jewelry is constructed by binding the wire elements, an ancient method that requires no solder. Her technique engineers sophisticated pieces with enough structural strength to literally last for thousands of years.

Interestingly, Ann usually avoids using the wire itself as a design motif.

Occasionally she produces pieces with a wire focal point, but more often, the masterful wire art is hidden and only used as a framework to showcase stones, crystals, or fossils. “People usually think my stones are held in place with a bezel,” explains Ann. “But I just use wire. This allows me to set any shape stone, gem, or artifact without altering it.”

Prior to learning wire art, Ann was employed as a professional folk singer and guitarist. In 1985, she became interested in the properties of crystals, and looked for ways to incorporate crystals into jewelry. Serendipity intervened when Ann met a master wire artist willing to teach her the basics of the wire art. As luck would have it, Ann’s years of pressing down on guitar strings yielded the substantial finger strength (and calluses!) needed to readily perform the difficult act of manipulating the wire.

Ann has perfected wire art using her own style and techniques. The artist works in both gold and silver and is available for custom work. You can meet Ann in person January through March at Scottsdale’s renowned Celebration of Fine Art show, or contact her through her website at www.AnnTurpinThayer.com.

Chandler’s art scene is a community-wide affair, boosted by both grass-roots and citylead organizations, including the Vision Gallery, a city-operated cultural center and exhibition space; Art on Boston, a new art gallery; the Chandler Arts Commission; the Olpin Art Center; and the Chandler Fine Art league, which produces Art Walk.

“We have an eclectic, young, and most importantly—growing—art scene in Chandler, explains Eric Faulhaber, Visual Arts Coordinator of Vision Gallery. “There is such enthusiasm for fine art from the East Valley public.”

VISITING ART ON BOSTON IS LIKE going to see an old friend. You always feel welcome and are assured of having a good time.

Art on Boston, so named because it’s located on Chandler’s Boston Street, is the southeast Valley’s newest fine art destination. The gallery is the brainchild of two artists, Laurie Fagen and Wendy Fallon, and has all the spunk and verve you would expect from a studio run by creatives. Laurie and Wendy have made their gallery an art experience where clients could feel free to ask questions, see artists work, and take classes.

Laurie and Wendy show work by the Valley’s freshest contemporary artists, with pieces from select international innovators thrown into the mix. The result is a wide range of art and gifts, all of which have passed Laurie and Wendy’s exacting standards for visual excitement.

“We have things you won’t find in other places,” says Laurie. “We look for unusual, energized artwork.”

Laurie and Wendy are also committed to helping their customers find a way to incorporate fine contemporary art part into their lives.

They allow clients to try large sculpture at home, offer a layaway plan and will ship anywhere in the United States. “If you fall in love with something, we want you to be able to take it home,” Wendy explains.

Art on Boston carries glass, metal sculpture, fiber art, photography, craft jewelry, acrylic and watercolor paintings, mosaics, and wearable art. The gallery is located at 11 West Boston, Suite 1 in Chandler and features a different-themed group show every month.

Scottsdale Artists’ School F E AT U RING SCOT TS DA L E A RT ISTS’ SC H OOL

n

BY A . STEEBY

SCOTTSDALE ARTISTS’ SCHOOL is an internationally famous training ground where all artists, from hobbyists to seasoned professionals, can learn their chops.

The not-for-profit school was started by the artistic community 25 years ago to teach traditional and representational art techniques and philosophy. “Artists in the area were concerned that classic styles were being lost in the abstract art environment of the time,” explains Kathy Duley, Marketing Director for the school. “Today, Scottsdale Artists’ School is the center of creativity for downtown Scottsdale.”

Over 2000 students take classes at the school, which range from one- to five-day workshops to weekly classes lasting a month or two.

Students hail from all over the world as well as from the backyard Valley community, bolstered by the acclaimed guest artists who serve as instructors.

Interested in taking a workshop or a class? The school offers over 140 to choose from throughout the year, on topics like drawing, painting, and sculpting. How about “The Really Useful Drawing Class”? Or “Everything You Wanted to Know About Acrylics But Were Afraid to Ask”? Maybe “Painting the 3⁄4 Portrait Pose” is more your style. Prices range Photos By David Kern from $10 for open studio time to $575 to $975 for five-day workshops.

Scholarships are also available.

Even if you have no desire to pick up a paintbrush or squish your fingers in clay, the school is still worth a visit. Housed in the historic Loma school building, Scottsdale Artists’ School is open to the public and features displays of instructor work. “The school is a gem in Scottsdale,” says Kathy. “We encourage people to come on by.”

Scottsdale Artists’ School is located at 3720 N. Marshall Way. Classes and events, including summertime youth camp, are listed on the school website: www.scottsdaleartschool.org.

PHOENIX PAINTER LUCY DICKENS has mastered the art of conversing with nature. Her secret? Be a good listener and let the surroundings do the talking.

Lucy’s keen observations of the natural world are the driving force behind her paintings. “I am always amazed and awestruck by the beauty around us,” she explains.

Lucy seeks inspiration all over the globe, whether at home in Phoenix or in the far corners of New Zealand.

When a scene catches her imagination, she takes dozens of reference photos to use in her studio work. “I carry a camera everywhere,” Lucy says.

Her photographs are used to capture ambiance rather than to record a scene’s exact physical details. Once she is in her studio, Lucy uses the images to nudge her memory and allow a painting to develop from her imagination.

Before she starts a painting, Lucy says a small prayer of thanks, and then follows it up with artistic discipline.

“Solitude” Providence Gallery Lucy Dickens She begins her process with thumbnail sketches, which she revises until she has the right composition. Once the image is correct, she draws it on a larger scale onto canvas or board. Only after these steps are completed does she begin to paint. “I spend as much time planning the piece as I do painting it,” the artist explains.

In many ways, Lucy is as much of a narrator as she is a painter. Her paintings are visual tales designed to get the audience emotionally involved: “All of my paintings tell a story. I try to capture perfect moments that transport others into the experience.”

Ted Blaylock “Pinnacle peak glow”

ARIZONA ARTIST TED BLAYLOCK has been creating paintings that resonate with western art lovers for decades. Have you met the man behind the iconic images?

Ted’s talent emerged in childhood. By high school, he was selling his paintings in oneman shows. But as Ted became a young husband and father, he curtailed much of his artistry to make ends meet by working as a skilled tradesman in St. Louis.

Ted always knew that he would return to art, and within nine years of working in the trades, he and his wife had enough savings for Ted to return to painting full time. “I always had a belief that I could make a living as an artist, but it was scary at first. In my last year as a steamfitter, I earned $30,000, but in my first full-time year as an artist, I only earned $3,000. But I always believed in my talent.”

In 1972, Ted and his family (including his mother and teen-age brother) relocated to Arizona. Three years later, Ted was headlining art shows.

To meet the demand for his art, Ted worked 12-hour days and produced 150 paintings a year—a remarkable feat given the extreme level of detail Ted puts into each piece. Ted says he took the grueling hours in stride. “After standing on eight-inch I-beams 100 feet in the air in 90 percent humidity next to a blast furnace, non-stop painting was pure pleasure,” he says with a grin.

2008 will mark Ted’s 40th year as an artist. Although he takes a bit more time off now than in the past, Ted still puts in many long, happy hours doing the work he loves.

The Christopher Galleries in Scottsdale carry a wide range of Ted’s canvases including landscapes, spiritual-themed imagery, and character studies.

Mahaffey “View from Nankoweap” 18”x 24”

TO VIEW A PAINTING by acclaimed Arizona artist Merrill Mahaffey is to see the world through his eyes. His sizable canvases interpret the world realistically, avoiding cosmetic enhancements. “I don’t ‘beautify’ scenes,” the artist says.

“I represent them as they are.”

Merrill takes dozens of pictures of his subject matter when he begins a new painting. “Photography is my sketchbook,” he says. This level is analysis is essential since the artist insists upon using only enough detail (and not a stroke more) to accurately portray a scene the way it appears to the human eye.

“If you were to hold a coarse-knit fabric in your hands, you would see the fabric clearly in the area where you focused your eyes, but the other end of the fabric would appear fuzzy,” Merrill explains. “While a painter could make all areas of the painting in focus at the same time, I strive instead to recreate the way things naturally appear to us.”

Merrill’s work is nationally recognized and is included in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Phoenix Art Museum, and the Smithsonian Institution, to name a few. In 2008, the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff will honor Merrill with a retrospective of his lifework.

As Merrill approaches his 70th birthday, he delights in his ever-increasing observations about the natural world. “I’m learning to see things better and more clearly,” he says. “Twenty or thirty years ago, when I would visit the Grand Canyon, all I saw were the rock walls of the gorge. Now, I perceive shimmering light, rock texture, plant details, and a library of iconic symbols.

It’s the advantage of age: I simply know more than I used to.”

Ch arles H. Pabst

ACCLAIMED PAINTER CHARLES PABST is well known by collectors for his monumental vistas and breathtaking scenery. His art shows have been sellouts throughout the country since the early 1980’s. An award-winning favorite among art collectors, his works can be found in private, corporate, and university collections throughout the world. National permanent exhibits include the C.M. Russell Museum, Great Falls, Montana; New York Stock Exchange; Bennington Center for the Arts, Bennington, Vermont; and the Leanin’ Tree Inc. Collection, Boulder, Colorado.

Pabst is a native of Santa Clara, California, but calls Arizona his home. During a trip to the Grand Canyon when he was twelve, Charles became captivated with the Southwest and knew that he would return someday. He came back to Arizona to study art at Arizona State University where he received his degree in Fine Arts.

During his college years, Charles met and fell in love with Christine Gose, who was studying to become a nurse. After both had completed their studies at ASU, they married in 1973. Their first three children are grown now with families of their own, and the younger two, ages 14 and 13, keep them young and active. Charles and Christine have always kept their family the center of their life, now including nine grandchildren.

Pabst has received numerous awards over the years and has been featured in Southwest Art Magazine, Art of the West Magazine, ArtBook of the New West Magazine, and his new award-winning book, Reflections, the Life and Career of Charles H. Pabst.

The Signature Gallery is the premiere showcase of the works of Charles H. Pabst.

Located in Old Town Scottsdale, Arizona, this inviting gallery sits amid a thriving upscale locale filled with shopping and fine dining.

SCOTTSDALE IS HOME to many of the Southwest’s finest American Indian art galleries, with merchandise ranging from prehistoric Native American antiquities to the finest works from contemporary potters, weavers, jewelers, carvers, and basket makers.

To introduce you to Scottsdale’s American Indian art scene, a preeminent group of galleries has banded together to form the Scottsdale American Indian Art Association. The mission of this organization is to promote authentic, quality American Indian art sold by galleries with exacting standards of integrity.

Deborah Neal, of Old Territorial Indian Arts explains: “Each gallery in the association has the highest ethics. We vouch for each other and refer our own clients because know that a customer will have a great experience at any of the member galleries.”

Kathi Ouellet of River Trading Post agrees.

“This is a group of professionals with high standards. We don’t ‘push’ sales; instead, we believe that it is more important to educate clients and help them find the art that they are passionate about.”

Every association member agrees to uphold four standards: quality, authenticity, integrity, and experience.

156

n

A r i zo n a Co l l e c to r ’s G u ide 2 007 -2 008

Quality and authenticity are cornerstones of the inventory at the member galleries. Available works are individually hand-crafted by American Indians using native materials. “The items for sale, whether antique or contemporary, can all be considered fine art,” says Kathi.

“None of our members offer anything that is mass-produced.”

Integrity and experience provide extra reassurance for the buying public. All members have between 10 and 40 years experience in the business and every gallery backs up their merchandise in writing. “All our members are committed to helping collectors make educated decisions,” says Kathi. “We are honest and stand by everything we sell.”

The association is actively involved in the community, and member galleries are often asked to judge and vote on awards at the Heard Museum’s annual Indian Fair. Every association gallery truly cares about the American Indians that created the art. “The mass-produced reproductions are hurtful to the American Indian artist’s livelihood,” says Deborah. “Our members want to see these native traditions continue.”

John C. Hill Antique Indian Art A NT IQ U E KAC HINA DOLLS

n

BY A . STEEBY

ALL ANTIQUES HAVE HISTORY, BUT PRECIOUS FEW HAVE PERSONALITY. Antique Kachina dolls made by the Hopi and Zuni Indians of Arizona and New Mexico have intrigued collectors for over 100 years and possess character enough to spare.

Kachinas are spiritual entities portrayed by the men of the Hopi and Zuni cultures, who dance the sacred dances dressed in Kachina garb.

Females do not participate in the Kachina society, so the dolls were originally created to teach the girls about Kachina lore.

“There is very specific iconography associated with each doll,” explains John C. Hill, an expert in antique Kachinas.

“Every Kachina has a specific role and characteristic appearance.”

Kachina doll collecting began when the railroad arrived in the Southwest in the 1890s. Thomas Varker Keam, a celebrated “Indian Trader” of the day, put together a collection in 1892 and sold it to the Peabody Museum in Boston. Soon after, other museums contacted Keam to start collections of their own. Since there was no stigma among the Hopi about selling the dolls to outsiders, a booming tourist trade was born.

Today, pre-1940’s Kachina dolls are a favorite of Native American art aficionados, and are particularly popular in France and Germany. John C. Hill Antique Indian Art in Scottsdale carries a remarkable collection Two-Horned Priest, Alosaka The God of Germination, Keams Canyon Type of early Kachinas, hand-collected by John Circa 1900, Height 8 inches himself and guaranteed to be authentic.

“Kachina dolls are wonderful folk art that rival the best work by ethnographic groups in Africa or the South Seas,” John says, “They are a magnificent slice of history.”

BY A . STEEBY

STANDING IN THE FOOTPRINTS OF PAST GENERATIONS, Susan Folwell is giving tradition a turnabaout. Her pottery is rooted in centuries of Native American artistry, but the fruit of her endeavors is fully 21st century.

Susan, a fifth-generation potter from New Mexico’s Santa Clara Pueblo, employs many historic methods developed by her pottery-making forebears. Susan forms her pots with the traditional pinch and coil method, hand-digs the clay near her reservation, and uses native clay slips.

Although her work is based in tradition, Susan constantly innovates, using pottery making as a means for personal exploration. “Self-expression is critical to me in whatever physical form it takes in my pottery,” Susan explains. “This has allowed me to break ‘traditional’ barriers and utilize such materials as wood stains, under-glazes and acrylic paints. This concept of breaking barriers has even led me to physically break apart pieces of my pottery and re-assemble them with wood glue, metal or wire.”

Susan has won extensive awards including multiple Best of Division awards at the prestigious Santa Fe Indian Market. Her work is included in the permanent collections of the Museum of Art and Design in New York City and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the Native American. Susan shows exclusively with the King Galleries, a preeminent gallery in Scottsdale that specializes in Native American pottery.

Even with her accolades, Susan keeps her success in perspective: “I am the inheritor of an incredibly rich cultural background. From my mother, the Pueblo pottery traditions have been passed down for generations. As a child, I saw making pottery as a chore, but as I have matured, I have seen how this historic process is a privilege to have learned and to eventually pass on.”

Ancient Arts Gallery FEATURING THE SOUTHWEST’S LARGEST COLLECTION OF PREHISTORIC ANTIQUITIES

n

BY A. STEEBY

ROY OSWALT AND WALTER KNOX of Scottsdale’s Ancient Arts Gallery invite you to discover your very own piece of history from their extensive selection of prehistoric Native American, pre-Columbian, Greek, Roman, and Egyptian antiquities.

“These are one-of-a-kind pieces of history that had meaning to the makers,” Walt says. “Ancient people did not create items just because they would look nice, the pieces served a purpose. Our artifacts are investment-grade.”

Visitors to Ancient Arts are usually shocked by the gallery’s huge inventory. How did Roy and Walt locate so many items? Walt explains: “Take the Roman Empire. There were 1.5 million Romans, each with vessels and personal effects. Even though the people have long since died, many of their possessions remain.”

Another surprise is the affordable price tags.

“People think prehistoric material will be expensive,” Walt says. “While we do have jars in the $100,000 range, we also have jars priced at $100.”

Some folks are leery of buying prehistoric items because of the legalities involved. This is where Roy and Walt’s experience eases the way: both men are sticklers for carrying only legal goods with excellent provenance. In fact, Walt is a former law enforcement agent. “If we have even the slightest question about a piece’s correctness, we won’t purchase it,” he says. “All items offered at Ancient Arts are guaranteed in writing to be authentic and include any legal disclosures making it legal to own.”

Roy started Ancient Arts 25 years ago, and has spent over two decades engaged in anthropological and archeological studies; Walt joined the team 10 years ago after his retirement from law enforcement.

The duo frequently performs authentication work for institutions like the Heard Museum in Phoenix, for many insurance companies, and for the United States government.

Ancient Arts also carries turn-of-the-century Native American baskets and weavings.

WHAT MAKES AN ART FORM A CLASSIC? According to Alston and Deborah Neal, for art to be classic it must be inextricably linked to a culture.

The Neals are in a position to know. For over 38 years, this husbandand-wife duo has operated Old Territorial Shop, a Scottsdale landmark that specializes in the classics of American Indian art.

“Today’s collectors are simply following a tradition enjoyed by art enthusiasts for the past 150 years,” explains Deborah. “Once the railroad came to the West, buyers were eager to buy art made by American Indians. People had been traveling to Europe for generations; they suddenly had an opportunity to obtain beautiful art from this continent.”

These early works are alive today at Old Territorial.

Historic pieces such as pottery, textiles, baskets and jewelry are available—all personally selected by the Neals for authenticity and aesthetic value. “We feel like we are caretakers of history,” Deborah says.

In addition to Old Territorial’s antiques, the Neals also offer select “new classics”. Deborah and Alston look for contemporary makers who are innovating using traditional techniques and materials. “These are tomorrow’s trendsetters,” Deborah explains.

Deborah and Alston value their long-standing relationships with artistic families; they have purchased art from multiple generations of the same family during their almost four decades in the business. Of course, after almost 40 years in business, the Neals are close to many of their clients, too. “Many of our long-time customers are now good friends,” Deborah says.

Old Territorial Indian Art is located on Main Street in downtown Scottsdale, and features Navajo blankets and rugs, fine 20th-century Estate jewelry, pottery by Pueblo Matriarchs, rare antique Indian baskets and beadwork, modern Hopi Kachinas in the traditional style and Navajo Indian folk art.

The old oak floors and the tin ceiling provide a picture frame for a most dazzling and colorful blend of contemporary and vintage Native American art. From antique Navajo weavings and pre-Columbian pottery, to jewelry, sculpture, traditional kachina dolls and pottery by today’s very top artists, collectors will find roaming through the many rooms of River Trading Post like going on a personal treasure hunt.

Visitors to River Trading Post also will find a grouping of beautiful Pendleton blankets and note cards that are produced especially to support the American Indian College Fund.

River Trading Post has become a gathering place for many Native American artists, many of whom participate in the River Trading Post Artist-In-Residence program.

Collectors from around the world have come to call River Trading Post home when they visit Scottsdale. Maybe they enjoy the ever present cup of Arbuckles’ cowboy coffee, the friendliness of the place, or sampling the way things were from way back, when things were a bit slower and a whole lot friendlier.

WOULD YOU RISK EVERYTHING to make a fresh start in an uncharted land? Would you leave the places and people you love for a chance of success, regardless how slim? In nineteenth-century America, millions of intrepid souls poured into the West, ready to take this life-or-death gamble.

Colorado sculptor Craig Bergsgaard is a self-made storyteller of this chapter of American history. His bronzes capture the spirit embodied in the people who made the Wild West their home and are a monument to the independence inherent in the American psyche.

A stickler for historical correctness, Craig believes that an authentic portrayal of the past is the only way to tell his stories. He researches the West with enough zeal to rival any historian, and ensures that everything, from guns to clothing, is properly represented.

Explains Craig: “If you don’t get the details right, then why bother? The sculpture simply is not the same without accuracy—‘good enough’ is simply not good enough for me.”

This understanding the era’s minutiae has galvanized Craig’s vision of the people who braved the hostile, often lawless, region.

“It was all about survival,” he says.

“I make sure the faces of all my “Buffalo Hunt” by Craig Bergsgaard subjects reflect the extreme challenges of the life: vulnerability, raw emotion, defiance.”

Craig personally understands the siren call of the West. In the 1980’s, he left his home state of Minnesota to create a new life in Colorado.

The sculptor lives with his wife JoAnn, dog Bodhi, and cat Kiya in Windsor, Colorado, near the artist enclave of Loveland. Craig also maintains a studio presence in Arizona from January through March during the annual Arizona Fine Art Expo in Scottsdale.

Douglas Tharalson L IV ING T HE A RT IST I C LI F E

BY A . STEEBY

DOES AN ARTIST NEED TALENT? SURE. How about creativity and vision? Of course. But according to painter Douglas Tharalson, being an artist isn’t a job, or even a calling. Instead it is an entire lifestyle—and living that lifestyle is the difference between producing good art and inspired art.

“It takes courage to live the life of an artist,” Douglas explains. “To live your life as an artist means to continuously live in the moment – to be prepared to grasp the moment – whenever it appears. You just can’t schedule inspiration.”

Douglas is well-versed in artistic courage, having left his family home at the age of 18 years and one second old to join the underground bohemian art scene of California in the 1960’s. It was there that his ability to create took root.

Eschewing traditional art school, Douglas instead embarked on an extensive education by developing relationships with artistic mentors who taught him techniques one-on-one, leaving no medium unexplored. He studied and lived with painters, sculptors, builders, ironworkers, poets, musicians and dancers of all ages from all parts of the world.

Today, Douglas works primarily with paint, imbuing each canvas with an honesty that only comes from a total dedication to both the craft and a lifetime of creating fine art. He likens his paintings to living entities, and his gallery to a social event where they come out to meet the public: “Each piece is waiting for a permanent home, with someone who wants to make it part of their personal life.”

Douglas maintains a studio on the southern California coast, but stays true to his bohemian past by traveling to Arizona where he lives from January to April of each year. During this time, he participates in the acclaimed Celebration of Fine Art Show in Scottsdale where he exhibits and sells his work. “I still have a need to commune with other artists and collectors to feed my creativity,” Douglas says knowingly.

“Without inspiration there is no art.”

Sue Averell M A ST E R O F F LOW ING F OR M

n

BY A . STEEBY

IN SUE AVERELL’S PAINTINGS, as in romance, opposites attract. Like a Mardi Gras dancer eloping with an aerospace engineer, her canvases unite color and rhythm with composition and structure.

With color, Sue is fearless. Her cityscapes are an urban plaid: even concrete and steel are depicted in kaleidoscopic polychrome. Yet underneath her embrangle of hue is a disciplined design that securely engineers the painting’s composition. “Drawing is essential to my work,” Sue says. “The perspective of my subject is critical to accurately portray how a scene sits in space.”

Paradoxically, a meticulous framework actually frees Sue to take liberties with reality. For example, although an image may be anchored to real life with its underlying sketch, the final work exhibits more imagination than literalism. This approach allows Sue to purposely include ambiguities which allow the viewer to finish the painting based on their own interpretations.

Sue works primarily in acrylics, using the medium to add both strata of color and texture. As she paints, she doesn’t abandon her beloved drawing techniques. Instead, the artist literally draws with pigment, emphasizing critical shape with bold, black paint lines that knot together both left- and rightbrain aesthetics.

This blend of rhythm and form allows Sue to explore the deeper subtext of an image. For example, Sue’s botanical series, Unstill Life, examines the activity inherent in otherwise static scenes. Explains Sue: “Unstill Life is about the movement I strive to capture on canvas—both the reflective movement of water in a vase and the motion of falling petals.”

In order to have an ample trove of images to fuel her mind’s eye, Sue travels for several weeks each year. When she isn’t exploring, she works in either her main studio in Sausalito, California or in her winter studio at the Celebration of Fine Art show in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Jossy Lownes PA INTINGS F RO M T HE HE A RT TO T HE CA N VA S

n

BY A . STEEBY

IMAGINATION IS AN INGREDIENT of any artist’s work, but for Arizona painter Jossy Lownes, it is her work. She creates every image purely from her mind’s eye, abstracting a mosaic of memories gleaned through decades of travel and experiences. “People will frequently ask me where a scene is located,” Jossy says. “I tell them that it isn’t a real place. It came from my heart.”

Jossy’s fantasy landscapes and figural work are compelling specifically because the artist isn’t tied to reality. Since she has no limits on her color palette, Jossy is free to use color as she imagines it, perhaps mixing honey hues from the Southwest with misty tones from the New England coast of her childhood.

To fully explore the depths of color and imagination, Jossy has developed an unexpected technique: she applies paint directly to the canvas with her fingers. Several years ago, she experimented with literally getting closer to her work by throwing her brushes aside, and found that her tactile approach resonated emotionally with her audience. “These were the paintings that made people stop and say that the works spoke to them,” Jossy explains.

Oil paints are Jossy’s preferred medium due to their inimitable luster and richness. As she applies layer upon layer of oils with her (gloved) fingers, she feels that she is painting “directly from my heart through my fingertips to the canvas”. This allows her color to be deeper than a flat, single-color layer. “The technique shows transparent against opaque, and allows for a more intense, tapestry-like effect,” she says.

Jossy has participated in many juried shows, including Scottsdale’s acclaimed Celebration of Fine Art. You can see Jossy’s work at the Navarro Gallery in Sedona, or directly at the artist’s website: www. jossylownes.net.

“Grand Opening”, watercolor on canvas, 36” x 48”

A MECHANICAL ENGINEER BY TRADE, Heidi hadn’t picked up a paintbrush until 13 years ago. In fact, she was unaware that she had artistic ability! A chance workshop in painting caught her interest, and almost immediately after beginning to paint, art collectors clamored to buy her work.

Heidi now works as an artist full time, and her collectors keep her very busy. “I have never worked so hard in my life,” Heidi says with a smile. “It is a challenge to keep up with the demand for my art, but I love every minute of painting.”

One of the aspects of Heidi’s creative process that sets her apart is her experimental approach. Without the pre-conceived strictures of “shoulds” and “shouldn’ts”, Heidi has developed her own methods of working with watercolors that produce remarkable results.

Her method requires layer upon layer of transparent color, a radical departure from conventional wisdom about watercolor technique.

Although time-intensive, this approach allows Heidi to develop luminous compositions and apply the watercolor to canvas in addition to paper.

Heidi believes that she is fortunate to be able to create fine paintings and wants her clients to feel a connection to the subjects she depicts. “I want people to feel as if they can walk into my landscapes and enjoy the experience, or to feel the sun that is illuminating my florals. Because of my time intensive method, I paint a limited number of pieces each year but I always paint with a vision of the end result,” Heidi explains. “I want my clients to share in that vision.”

“MODERN ART” IS non-representational contemporary art that transcends traditional realism into something different, evocative, and visceral.

Considering Scottsdale as source for such cerebral works might seem incongruous for the city renowned for its cowboy art and western landscapes. But modern art is, most assuredly, alive and well here in the Wild West.

“Scottsdale is a resource for sophisticated and decorative modern and contemporary art in its own right,” explains Peter Strub, owner of Marshall Gallery. “The vastness of the United States provides for much regional interest – in technique, as well as subject.”

Visitors from outside the Southwest are frequent buyers in the Scottsdale modern art arena. “We have many clients from New York, Minnesota, and Florida,” says Chris Santa Maria, Manager of Chiaroscuro Gallery. “They buy art here because the works represented are relevant and substantial.”

Visitors aren’t the only modern art enthusiasts. Local buyers are becoming more attuned to these conceptual works, a trend Strub welcomes.

“Year by year we see that local clients are ever more confident Featured at Karen Leeds Studio in their own tastes and ability to identify and select art.” he says.

Chris Santa Maria feels that more people can become comfortable with modern art by approaching the works on a deeper level: “You don’t need a fine art degree to understand modern art; all you need is emotional resonance as you look at it.”

Peter Strub agrees. “True art experiences leave lasting impressions,” Strub says. “Art has the power to haunt one and wake one in the middle

of the night. True art has power - human beings relate instantly to it, as they do to music and the well-spoken or well-written word.�

BY SUE K I N G

ALBUQUERQUE ARTIST SARAH KARNES creates fine art prints that combine the best pen and ink design sensibility with historic printing techniques to create magnificent monochromatic imagery.

Sarah’s prints are polymer plate etchings, an art form in which every print is laboriously inked and rolled thorough a press by hand.

“The process is physically very taxing,” explains Sarah, “but the results are beautiful.”

Every stroke of Sarah’s work is made with an unusual technique that reveals itself when the images are viewed at close range. These details pull in the audience—literally. “When people notice the detail in my work, they often move in closer and closer until they get right up to the piece. I’ve even had to wipe nose prints off the glass!” the artist says with a laugh.

Sarah developed her unusual technique when she was at life’s low ebb. Her original medium of choice was oil paints, but overexposure to the toxic pigments landed the artist in the hospital. She was given medication that had the unfortunate side effect of causing her hands to quake—a disturbing consequence for an artist.

Undeterred, Sarah sat in her hospital bed with her sketchbook and drew with her wobbly grip. She was fascinated by the texture of the resultant scribbled lines, and continued to explore the technique long after the tremors had ceased.

Sarah, who is also trained as concert violinist, draws parallels between the artwork she creates now and the music she made with the orchestra. “A concerto is learned note by note, phrase by phrase,” Sarah says. “My work is similar: I create my art to be enjoyed mark by mark and line by line.”

EVERY ONE OF RON RICHMOND’S PAINTINGS is steeped in symbolism, but the artist doesn’t presume that you want to be spoon-fed an interpretation.

“The viewer doesn’t need to be told what to get out of a painting,” Ron says. “They will take from it what they need.”

For Ron, painting is an opportunity to puzzle through life’s larger issues. “I am really motivated by the classic questions about life,” he explains. “What is life all about? How does life have meaning?”

Ron’s introspection leads to ideas and concepts which he turns into a symbolic visual statement. Ron eschews beautiful, but meaningless, compositions in his search for subjects with depth. “If it doesn’t have symbolism,” Ron asks, “why paint it?”

To develop his thought-filled oil paintings, Ron works from life for small subjects or from reference photos for larger ones. Many of his backgrounds are imaginary, created to direct attention to the work’s focal point.

Since graduating with his MFA from Brigham Young University in 1992, Ron has worked full-time creating fine art. Today he lives in rural Utah, a meditative place that provides him with a peaceful environment in which to create.

Ron has four children and credits his wife, Vicki, for her unwavering encouragement. “My wife is so supportive,” Ron says thankfully. “I have no regular hours, and sometimes may work until three o’clock in the morning. I couldn’t have this level of success without her.”

Even though Ron is in the studio five or six days a week, he approaches every minute with joy and gratitude. “I feel like I am living a dream,” he says. You can see Ron’s paintings at Scottsdale’s Marshall Gallery and online at www.marshallartsgallery.com.

UTAH ARTIST DOUGLAS FRYER IS EQUAL PARTS poet, philosopher, and painter. His paintings offer a suggestion of reality designed to allow viewers to interpret the work with their own memories, thoughts, and reactions.

Before he ever picks up a brush, Douglas analyzes what the abstract qualities of a painting will be. “I decide on what emotion I want to evoke: ‘grand’, ‘epic’, ‘sublime.’ I think of the single thing I want to say,” he explains.

Douglas contemplates both his and the viewer’s role as he considers subject matter. “My scenes may include a single horse, or one tree, or a solitary barn,” he says. “I use such elements to stand in as a kind of proxy for myself and how I am ‘placed’ in the environment.” Douglas hopes that on some level these devices allow the viewer to sense their own presence in the work.

This depth of deliberation and reflection allows Douglas to grasp the complexities of the emotion he wishes to convey. Only at this point does the artist explore techniques for executing his vision since he believes that methods used are “a servant of the idea” being expressed. Douglas takes the technical act of painting seriously and works until the meaning of his piece is properly resolved.

Ultimately, Douglas strives to provide a respite from the ugly parts of life. “The news is full of war, death, hate and intolerance –all realities of our lives.” Douglas explains. “I want my work to counteract those things in some small way, and reveal beauty, goodness and harmony. I like to think my paintings are a prayer: one that shows devotion, hope and faith and pays respect to this beautiful world.

Douglas’s paintings are exhibited at the Marshall Gallery in Scottsdale and online at www.marshallartsgallery.com.

THE MARSHALL GALLERY is more than a place to buy fine art: it is a genuine art resource, offering patrons assistance and service in addition to a superb inventory of contemporary paintings and sculpture. Gallery owners Peter Strub and his wife, attorney DeeAn Gillespie Strub, are committed to providing an enriching art experience from the moment clients walk in the door to the time a new treasure is installed in the home. The Marshall Gallery appeals to connoisseurs and new collectors alike.

Drawing upon his three decades of exploration in the world’s finest art museums, Peter selects artists whose works are tomorrow’s heirlooms.

The artists at the Marshall Gallery, whether traditional or modern, are masters of the nuances of classical discipline. Such artistry translates to work that stands the test of time, explains Peter. “Every piece we feature has an enduring quality that will not be out-of-date five years from now.”

Peter and Fine Art Consultant Tamara Paulsen bring art alive with a passion, and seek to provide a refreshing antidote to the stereotypical gallery experience. “Not everyone comes in here to buy,” says Peter.

“We are delighted to share this beautiful work with a new audience and encourage people to simply come in and look.”

Behind Marshall Gallery’s ability to offer outstanding service and works of true value is the belief that by adding fine art to a home, a ripple-effect of creativity occurs throughout the art lover’s life. “I get tremendous joy in helping people enrich their lives,” Peter says. “Art stimulates the human spirit like nothing else I know.”

The Marshall Gallery is located at 4168 North Marshall Way in Scottsdale. For more information, you may refer to the gallery website at www.marshallartsgallery.com.

LKG CONTEMPORARY has been located in Scottsdale, Arizona for over fifteen years in the heart of the Art District. The gallery was conceived with a focus on contemporary Native American art, but has now changed its focus to showcase a variety of contemporary and abstract art. Mix media fine art paintings, metal art, wood sculpture and ceramics are presented to showcase their clean lines and elegant aesthetic appeal. The owners have over forty years of combined experience in the art world. The gallery represents incredibly talented local and regional award-winning artists who are masters in their respected mediums.

A diversity of backgrounds and life experiences are the foundation for the artists’ inspiration to their work. Mary Wilbanks’ compositions are acrylic collages on canvas. Her paintings depict her passion as an artist and her love of beauty and art. Being an artist is life to Mary and her passion in life is her work. Josiane Childers is an Arizona artist and states that each piece she does is an emotional journey through color. She is inspired by the exciting possibilities of infinite color relationships. Among the most intriguing artwork in the gallery are Robert Charon’s reverse paintings on plexiglass. The plexiglass allows for the “canvas” to be rounded and the painted landscapes and abstract Taya Hubbard “Chocolate” Metal Art color fields are mesmerizing. Charon also does abstract paintings on canvas that have great texture and creativity.

Working in raku fired sculpture Jim Romberg has developed an integration of surface, color and raku effects. These present a very contemporary expression of an age old aesthetic of ceramics.

Romberg’s raku works are directed toward a sense of time, movement and speculations involved in abstract relations. Chad Awalt, combines the expression of the human figure with the sensitivity and warmth of wood. This has been the physical fulfillment of an evolving concept for Chad. After years of watching images form out of wood while concurrently and diligently studying classical figure, Chad has brought these two areas of intense focus together.

Taya is a steel sculptor and is fascinated with creating dimensional objects in space. Metal allows her to utilize the strength of the material and linear forms. Her ability to etch, scratch, color, stain and oxidize the metal provides each piece with a unique reflection of light.

The Manheim Gallery G I G I STATEH A M

LOCAL ARTIST GIGI STATEHAM was born and raised in New Orleans. As a young child, she channeled creative energies by sketching her horse. Later, fascinated by sidewalk artists on Jackson Square, she studied their techniques, experimenting to find her own unique style.

Following graduation from New Orleans’ Newcomb College with an art degree, she began her 13-year career as a commercial artist, developing portrait skills on the weekends selling pastel portraits in the French Quarter.

For a while, she taught commercial art at Colorado Mountain College, Glenwood Springs, but during a trip to Europe she ‘discovered’ watercolor. While living in Santa Fe, she began painting watercolor portraits and Southwest landscapes—her true passion...

In 1984, she and her husband moved to “Canyon de Chelly,” watercolor, by Gigi Stateham Cottonwood, designing and building the home in which Gigi still resides. She spends many hours in her home studio, relishing the solitude and serenity of her rural abode.

Plentiful birds, wildlife, and flowers provide endless inspiration for her paintings.

“I love the process of actually working up to the painting itself. I sometimes think about a painting for two years, changing and improving “Black-bird Pot with Feather,” watercolor, by Gigi Stateham it in my mind before painting it.”

She has recently begun using old photographs as subjects, taking artistic license to embellish or alter historic reality. These paintings have special significance for Gigi—they are not simply products of her imagination but are pieces of her past, swathed in memories and emotion.

Over the years, Gigi has had many one-woman shows; has been represented at a variety of fine art galleries; while living in Santa Fe, she was an active member of Artists Equity, serving on their Board of Directors; and has won many awards. She is currently a juried member of Northern Arizona Watercolor Society (NAWS).

Her work can be viewed locally at THE MANHEIM GALLERY in Old Town Cottonwood.

South of Pilar, 18” x 28” Dyptic, Oil, Ramona Stites

JAVADOG GALLERY IN OLD TOWN COTTONWOOD features an eclectic lineup of artists and artisans whose work ranges in style and media from small ceramic items and handmade jewelry to large copper panels, gourds and mixed media. Whether you need an inexpensive, yet personal, gift, or a grand statement for your living room wall, Javadog can accommodate you with both representational and abstract works of art. Open since July of 2002, Javadog Gallery is one of the anchors of Historic Old Town Cottonwood and is frequented by many Sedona collectors.

Javadog’s owner, Ramona Stites’ own work reflects both sides of the aesthetic yin-yang.

Once torn by her desire to paint both non-representational and landscape-based subject matter, she resolved to pursue both directions concurrently. The evolution has been stunning. Her intense, emotional colors are the dominating element in both the landscape interpretations of her outer world, primarily the predevelopment high desert she loves, and the abstract representations of her inner world. Executed in oils, acrylics and pastels, her work is highly influenced by the Impressionists and the Abstract Expressionists.

She has had numerous one-woman shows and has participated in group shows throughout the Southwest.

First of many awards was the Award for Outstanding Academic Achievement in Art and Design at Northern Arizona University in 1987. For more information about Ramona, her work, her intimate painting classes at her gallery studio and the latest exciting work on display at Javadog Gallery, visit www.javadoggallery.com or Up Country, 27.5 x 19.5, Pastel, Ramona Stites call 928-634-5217.

CONSIDERED BY MANY to be one of the leading up-and-coming female artists in America, Liz Wolf was recently invited to show her work at the annual female artists exhibit at Wickenburg’s Desert Cabelleros Museum. This show features only the finest in Southwest art.

Although Liz has worked with a wide range of materials, today the majority of her sculptures are cast in bronze and have the visual feeling and softness of clay. The beautiful patinas are created with heat and chemicals especially for each individual piece. With small, numbered editions, Liz’s work is greatly valued by her collectors.

Many of her pieces depict indigenous women and their relationship to water, the land, and their families. River Walker I is a stately Native woman bearing a water vessel on her head, carrying the heavy, life-sustaining load back to her family.

Another series is inspired by the relationships between animals and people and the personality traits we share. She often combines the animal spirit with the human form, resulting in an anthropomorphized figure.

When creating a new piece, she sculpts a human form, dresses it, and then drapes it with clay. The final creation is an animal or bird ‘spirit’ striking a very human stance.

Quail Run depicts a quail enveloped in a cape, exposing fingers and toes of very human appendages; it has movement, is “Dreams in Flight” Limited Edition Bronze measures: 16” x 16” x 11” focused and is on a mission. It also has a lot of character, like all of Liz’s pieces.

Her very balanced bronzes have facial expressions befitting the individual: alert readiness in Standing Watch; focused attentiveness in Listening.

Liz believes that “...we must pay attention to any animal that captivates us. They are here to teach us many things. To share animal spirit with our spirit is a blessing.”

Liz Wolf’s work may be seen at Goldenstein Gallery, Uptown Sedona

Windrush Gallery n

BY M I LDR ED F OR D

RAISED ON THE HIGH DESERT near Mountainair, New Mexico, Mildred Ford’s family relocated to Oregon’s Pacific coast while she was young. But Mildred never forgot the desert’s beauty, returning to the Sonoran Desert at every opportunity. These visits replenished her soul.

Mildred saw an issue of Arizona Highways and was captivated by John Hilton’s paintings of the desert in bloom. Moved, she bought some art supplies and began to paint... “I just loved his art and got hooked on his palette knife process of painting.”

According to Mildred, painting with a palette knife is “...just like frosting a cake.”

With no formal training whatsoever, she tapped into latent talent waiting to be discovered—and this was the beginning of Mildred’s ‘life as an artist.’

She has now been painting professionally for over 25 years. Completely self-taught, she uses oils and a palette knife to provide the heavy texture of the desert plants, utilizing explosions of color to accent the vividness of various blooms.

Mildred captures every nuance of color, every shadow, every hint of sunset pink and orange, often including a stone-lined pathway that invites the viewer to wander amidst the colorful desert splendor. Her soft-focus style evokes feelings of peacefulness and serenity with no jarring edginess to spoil the mood.

Now an active great-great grandmother, Mildred continues to paint her beloved Sonoran Desert and regularly sends new work to the Windrush Gallery in Sedona where she first placed her art in 1991. Her work can also be seen at the Blue Coyote in Cave Creek.

American Galleries MAKING LIFE MORE BEAUTIFUL, ONE WALL AT A TIME. SINCE 1966

AMERICAN GALLERIES is the “must-see” gallery at the Hillside Shops in Sedona. Featuring one of Arizona’s largest selection of beautiful original paintings---all gorgeously framed.

This collection is the result of 42 years of searching for the best the art world has to offer, then distilling the selection by two final criteria: quality and value.

The final result is a remarkably diverse and dazzling collection of original artwork: the hills of Tuscany and the streets of Paris await you; insightful abstracts catch your eye and move your soul; spectacular figure studies and depictions of the West enthrall you. A visit to American Galleries is an experience unto itself.

American Galleries believe if you are considering adding the refined touch that only a beautiful painting can achieve in your home, then visiting this gallery is an absolute must.

We have recently added a carefully selected collection of bronze sculpture, art glass and works by Godard and other fine artists.

American Galleries at Hillside Shops, Sedona. Just South Across the Bridge, OneQuarter mile from Tlaquepaque, between Shugrues Grill and Javelina Cantina.

A Beautiful Drive, A Beautiful Destination, 671 HWY 179, (928) 204-1096.

American Galleries will be opening a new location in Scottsdale this Fall. For more information, call Don Austin at (602) 510-7030.

Gallery of Modern Mast ers GALLERY OF MODERN MASTERS has the largest offering in Arizona of investment art by the 20th Century Modern Masters. The gallery’s current collection contains original paintings, etchings and lithographs by such renowned artists as Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Joan Miro and Salvador Dali; works by American masters Calder, Francis, and Stella; and an excellent Latin collection that includes Zuniga and Botero.

Furthermore, the gallery represents more than a dozen awardwinning contemporary artists from all over the world with paintings, sculpture, ceramics, hand-blown glass and photography.

The gallery is also the exclusive representative of photographer Ian Whitehead. Ian’s work pays tribute to the region’s beauty, capturing the various colors and moods of Sedona, the canyons, and other spectacular vistas on the Colorado plateau.

Through personal experience, Gallery of Modern Masters’ owners Jill and Zach Richardson know that 20th-century modern master art is a rewarding financial investment. Being an affiliate of “Senza Titilo 1” By Sam Francis, Edition 31 of 58 International Fine Art, the gallery Signed by the artist, Original Etching has access to more than 1000 pieces of art and brings more than 35-years experience in global fine-art distribution. Zach Richardson offers seminars and talks about investing in art to interested groups, individual collectors, and art-lovers.

“These are the artists our children are learning about in art class.

Their work is part of permanent collections in all major museums around the world. Picasso, Chagall and Dali have all played a role in the transformation of what we call 20th-century modern art. When you purchase one of their paintings, or one of their original lithographs or etchings, you are not only buying a great investment but also a piece of history,” says Richardson.

Gallery of Modern Masters is located at the Hillside Pavilion on Route 179 in Sedona.

El Prado

BY T HE C REEK

n

BY B. LEH N H A R DT

EL PRADO GALLERY INSPIRES YOUR DREAMS of outdoor living spaces with its Sculpture Garden shaded by tall Arizona sycamores on the banks of Oak Creek.

Dappled sunlight dances across art created especially for outdoor spaces while birds serenade visitors enjoying the peaceful ambiance.

El Prado’s Garden features the most comprehensive collection of outdoor art in the Southwest.

Lyman Whitaker’s wind sculptures and Bruce Stillman’s kinetic art twirl and swing with the gentle breezes; stainless steel and copper combine in a mesmerizing waltz to soothe the soul.

Stone and steel furniture by Richard Albin invites visitors to “sit a spell.” The artistic statement of each piece is only surpassed by the surprisingly comfortable art that will “...last forever.” Albin does not treat the rocks or in any way embellish their natural decorative veins and composition. None of the stones are cut or modified— he believes it is his job when selecting the individual stones to choose the right ones.

Robin Laws’ bronze sculpture, Hogwash, depicts three blissful pigs taking a swim in a tub of water. Her ability to capture the humorously playful attitude Hogwash of animals with her bronzes makes the viewer pause, smile and soak in the serenity.

This sculpture garden offers everything necessary for your outdoor retreat: furniture, sculpture, desert blooms that illuminate the evening with soft light, and fountains. People walk into the Garden and smile as all of their senses are pleasantly stimulated. It’s no wonder they linger, comfortably relaxed, in El Prado’s Garden by the Creek.

El Prado

BY T HE C REEK

n

BY B. LEH N H A R DT

EL PRADO GALLERY IS A GRACIOUS OLD HOME perfectly suited for displaying the work of many different artists—art that appeals to a very diverse group of collectors.

John Cogan’s Ph.D. in physics helps him understand how “...everything in the landscape is influenced by the physics of light, atmosphere, and optics.”

He feels his science background helped him develop artistically. Intensely precise and a master of light and how it falls, he says, “If I had studied art instead of physics, I would have become a very different artist.”

Another landscape artist, fast emerging as a recognizable name, is tonalist Fredrick Stephens. Stephens’ work is expressionistic with sweeping bands of color. Painting with emotion rather than realism, he approaches his oils with an abstract eye. Although grounded in tradition Stephens’ work has an edginess that gives his landscapes a contemporary feel.

Kate Starling’s work falls somewhere between Cogan’s realism and Stephens’ expressionism. Also possessing a science degree (geology), she is passionate about the outdoors, often cruising back roads looking for inspiration. Raised in Arizona, Starling has a soft spot for the ever surprising desert landscape.

El Prado also features some exceptionally talented sculptors. Sally Kimp’s bronzes are serene and fluid, with smooth, simple lines exuding strength and dignity. She originally worked in terra cotta and when switching to bronze, she created her own patinas to reflect the character of each of her subjects in their own unique way.

In contrast, Navajo sculptor Ed Natiya captures the Navajo people’s wisdom and integrity, gratitude for life, and deep connection with nature. His bronzes tell stories and must be viewed from several angles to see the truth of the piece. Collectors of Natiya’s work say his sculptures radiate with the history and teachings of his elders.

BY B. LEH N H A R DT

NAVARRO’S WORK can be seen at Navarro Gallery, Tlaquepaque, Sedona. With over seventy bronze sculptures on display, gallery owner/artist Chris Navarro invites you to experience the passion and desire that inspire his artistry. Although known primarily as a “Western artist”, he puts no limits on himself or his subject matter. Bronzes like Think Outside the Box, Fierce Grace, and Risk prove that he can sculpt more than cowboys and broncos.

Navarro’s “inspirational bronzes” include Effort and Desire (Atlas holding a revolving world on his shoulders) and America’s Pride (a soaring eagle angled against a waving American flag).

More recently, he created a piece motivated by personal experience and combined the West with inspirational fervor. During a roping contest, Navarro’s horse reared, pivoted, and found himself straddling the roping box. While Navarro was attempting to dismount, the frightened horse reared again and the unanticipated movement unseated its rider. In the melee, the horse’s head slammed into Navarro’s right temple, knocking him unconscious. Less than two weeks later Navarro had created Get Back On (a “A Mother’s Love” 31x18x16 cowboy on the ground with his hand to his head gazing up at his horse), captioned: “Whether life or a horse knocks you down, get back up and get back on.”

Navarro sculpts in the gallery each afternoon, six days a week, meeting his collectors. “After all, without them,” he says, “I wouldn’t be a professional sculptor.”

One of the most exciting features of Navarro Gallery is the sculpture garden leading to the entrance of the gallery. It includes bronze monuments of an eagle, a fountain of doves, horses, grizzly bears, an elk and more—all capturing the admiration of Tlaquepaque’s many visitors.

“Navarro Gallery’s desire is to exceed our collectors’ expectations and to change the world through art because the most worthwhile thing in art is to see what’s in someone else’s heart.”

BY D. SA BEC K

AS A CHILD WHO WAS CONSTANTLY drawing and painting, Deanne Sabeck was particularly fascinated with light, shadow and reflection. These musings, along with a continual exploration of the dynamics of dualism (light/ dark, strength/fragility) inform her current work which confronts our perceptions of reality head on.

After a long career in architectural stained glass, of which there are many examples around the valley, and many studies of various techniques in working with glass at the Pilchuck Glass School, Deanne merged her fascinations with light, shadow and reflection with her love of minimalism to develop her own unique art form, “Light Sculpture.”

The focus with this work is the dynamic painting of reflected and transmitted light patterns, which occur as light passes through bent forms of reflective glass, rather than the physical piece itself, which is quite minimal.

Although the physical piece is static, the reflected images are illusive and mysterious as they continually evolve in both form and color due to changing angles of light, either from the sun on outdoor installations or from computerized dimming devices on indoor installations. The work then becomes quite kinetic as forms appear, disappear, change form and appear to “breathe” in meditative, hypnotic patterns.

Deanne often incorporates text and/or photo imagery in her work adding yet another layer of distortion. Words and images become more powerful when they are projected and illusive. In one of her public art installations at the San Diego Airport, vibrant color, shadow and light seduce the viewer into studying the piece while the disappearing/reappearing haiku poems reflect on the magical and mysterious in the natural world which we tend to take for granted in our fast-paced lives.

Deanne’s work is represented at Kuivato Glass Gallery Tlaquepaque, Sedona.

Isadora H andweaving Gallery n

BY B. LEH N H A R DT

THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF ISADORA HANDWEAVING GALLERY, Deanne and Byron McKeown, built the gallery in 1989 out of an existing portico in Tlaquepaque’s main courtyard, designing the space with love and an eye for display.

In January of this year, Wendy and Sean McKeown bought the gallery from his parents. They are committed to maintaining their longstanding reputation for excellence in design and craftsmanship coupled with a dedication to customer satisfaction.

As clients enter Isadora, they are struck by a plethora of vibrant colors, textures, designs, and fabrics. Add the sheen of highly polished silver, bright turquoise, and a variety of other stones, and Isadora beckons all to explore not only with their eyes, but with their hands. Feel fabrics and textures; view tints and shades in shawls, scarves, and woven garments of all types; try on bracelets, necklaces, and other jewelry created here in Sedona by Deanne and Byron McKeown—90% of Isadora’s jewelry is their hand-made, one-of-a-kind creations.

Rated one of the top 10 handweaving galleries in the U.S., Isadora represents many renowned fiber artists. Randal Darwall uses silk almost exclusively because it takes color like no other yarn does. He likens his work to a musical composition and says, “...I feel music in my pieces.”

Candiss Cole, a Sedona handweaver, also utilizes silk. Her ikat-shibori is an entirely new method of dying and weaving silk that combines multiple processes with stunning results. One of her creations graced this year’s Academy Awards runway.

Isadora proudly offers every price point to suit every budget and can accommodate nearly all sizes—including extra-small or extra-large custom-fit garments. If you discover an item you simply must have, it can be made just for you in your size.

Isadora Handweaving Gallery is located in the main courtyard of Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village, Sedona.

KEN ROWE AND SUSAN KLIEWER, both renowned bronze sculptors, have one very important thing in common. Both believe in really knowing their subject matter.

Ken sculpts mostly wildlife and, as a taxidermist in a prior life, has extensive knowledge of anatomy, composition, and wildlife physiology.

He “works from life”, visiting his subjects and sketching various poses before deciding the position of his next piece. Ken says several lifethreatening close calls in his pursuit of subjects “...were well worth the physical price.”

Brutus, a 740-pound black bear, has posed for several bronzes; an Alaska trip allowed Ken to observe eagles during the summer salmon spawn. Grateful to be able to make a living from indulging his passion, Ken says, “Everything I sculpt, I’ve seen.”

Ken has been sculpting professionally for 20 years and is a member of the Society of Animal Artists and Western Artists of America.

For years, Susan Kliewer worked in a foundry preparing other artists’ sculptures for casting. Catching ‘the bug’ herself and already experienced in casting, she set about learning the basics of creating the clay model. And learn she did.

Many of Susan’s subject ideas date from her Marble Canyon Trading Post days. She formed lasting friendships with Navajo traders and has “Vision” bronze

by Susan Kliewer and Ken Rowe seen ceremonies few Anglos are privileged to attend. She enjoys sharing her memories of these special moments with collectors.

Susan sculpts mostly Native American people and cowboys. She is currently working on a secret piece for the Mountain Oyster Club in Tucson, but she did say, “It’s a famous cowboy with his favorite horse.”

Ken Rowe’s work can be viewed at Mountain Trails Gallery, Sedona, and Heritage Gallery, Scottsdale. Susan Kliewer’s work can be viewed at Mountain Trails Gallery, Sedona; Medicine Man Gallery, Tucson; Ron Stewart Gallery, Scottsdale; and Karin Newby Gallery in Tubac.

No rther n This section of Arizona Collector’s Guide encompasses the northern Arizona communities of Flagstaff, Jerome and Prescott.

As the alpine home to Northern Arizona University, Lowell Observatory and Route 66, Flagstaff is one of Arizona’s favorite highcountry destinations for both tourists and locals alike. Situated at the base of the San Francisco Peaks and surrounded by pine forests, Flagstaff offers its visitors and residents four seasons of terrific snow skiing, hiking, mountain biking, golf and more. See www.flagguide.com Prescott was once the capital of Arizona. In March 2006 the National Trust for Historic Preservation named Prescott one of its “Dozen Distinctive Destinations” appealing to tourists’ taste for historic places.

For more information please visit www.flagguide.com www.prescott.com www.azjerome.com

Consistently named one of the nation’s “Best Places to Retire,” Prescott is “Everybody’s Hometown”. Visit www.prescott.com.

Once a thriving mining camp starting in the late-1880s, Jerome is now a bustling tourist magnet and artistic community with a population of about 450. It includes a modicum of artists, craft people, musicians, writers, hermits, bed and breakfast owners, museum caretakers, gift shop proprietors. See www.azjerome.com www. A ZColle c torsGuid e .com

City Insight: Jerome F E AT U RING J E RO M E A RT WA LK

BY A . STEEBY

WHAT DO YOU GET when you mix a community full of artisans and 30 outstanding art galleries into a former ghost town? You get Jerome’s Art Walk, an event Phoenix Magazine named #1 on the list of best things to do in Arizona.

Jerome’s Art Walk is like a town-wide fiesta. The entire community’s involvement provides an electric evening that will tickle your artistic side.

“There is such a party feel in town during Art Walk,” says Donna Chesler, owner of Gallery 527. “This is one of the only nights that everything is open in Jerome. Most galleries plan something special for the evening, like food, wine, or live music.”

Joanna Pregon, owner of My Mind’s Art Gallery, agrees. “It is exciting to be part such a grassroots event. Artists directly participate and there is so much energy and excitement.”

You can easily explore the galleries, shops, and restaurants on foot. If you prefer not to walk, a free shuttle bus scurries from gallery to gallery. The shuttle covers most of town including the old Jerome High School, which is home to over 20 artist studios. “Everywhere you look, you will see something beautiful,” says Donna.

In its original incarnation, Jerome was a copper mining town. When the mine closed in the 1950s, the town of 15,000 residents quickly dissolved into a ghost town. In the late 1960s, hippies and artists discovered Jerome, starting the town’s rebirth as a thriving artist colony.

Today, 450 people make their home in the hamlet, which is 20 miles southwest of Sedona. “Jerome is such a unique place,” says Joanna. “People come from all over the globe to be a part of this destination for art.”

The Jerome Art Walk takes place on the first Saturday of each month from 5:00 to 8:00pm. For more information, visit www.jeromeartwalk.com.

City Insight: Prescott NESTLED IN THE MOUNTAINS 90 miles northeast of Phoenix, Prescott is home to a multitude of artists who draw inspiration from their wonderful surroundings, the arts departments of two colleges, the venues of three museums and most importantly each other. Emerging from this collaborative spirit several influential arts organizations have formed. The Prescott Area Arts and Humanities Council, Prescott Fine Arts Association, Mountain Artists Guild, Tsunami on the Square, Arizona Classic Theatre, Prescott Symphony Guild, Prescott Downtown Mural Project and last but not least, Prescott’s Art! The 4th Dimension Art Walk Program.

Prescott’s Art! The 4th Dimension was established in February of 2004 by a dedicated group of gallery owners and artists who believed in the dream of a monthly art walk program for the City of Prescott.

The 4-Heads, as they are affectionately referred to, took the 4th Dimension name from Einstein’s theory of relativity. A step beyond the 2-D and 3-D aspects of painting and sculpture, the 4th Dimension is where time and space coexist thus allowing for the phenomenon of motion. There is not a more appropriate name for the movers and the shakers who continue to keep the dream a reality.

Beginning at “5:00 p.m.-ish” relative time on the 4th Friday of every month, Prescott’s 4th Dimension consortium of art galleries and restaurants keep their doors open for you and your friends to journey into Prescott’s fabulous mile high in the pines art scene: • Fine arts and crafts • Live music • Local eateries And the adventure continues through the weekend during regular gallery and restaurant business hours.

We are pleased to have a feature in The Arizona Collector’s Guide and to provide within its pages a sampling of the art and artists you may come across on your next 4th Friday Art Walk adventure in Prescott, Arizona.
