    Cynthia Inson: Mar 21:

    It’s All About Relationships But Keep Your Distance.

    Cynthia's Website

    Painting with intention is all about combining the relationships between color, value, line, form, size, and position. However, it is a challenge to “keep your distance” to able to adjust and improve your works. 

    Cynthia Inson is an artist devoted to capturing moments of awe and transforming them into vivid, emotionally resonant paintings. Inspired by skies, mountains, roses, and water, she creates work that stops viewers in their tracks and invites them to experience the same joy and wonder she felt. Her paintings reveal new details over time, encouraging viewers to linger and rediscover them again and again. Cynthia holds degrees in Art History, Studio Arts, Anthropology, and Archaeology from Wichita State University and is represented by Nedra Matteucci Galleries in Santa Fe. 

    Michele Byrne: May 16, Water-mixable Oils.

    Wendy Ahlm:

    Wendy Ahlm: Jan 24, Gouache.

    Have you tried this new hot medium yet? Wendy Ahlm will demonstrate how she paints in gouache and lead you through some swatching exercises so that you can try out the medium and practice what she considers one of its most versatile, yet confusing characteristics: viscosity.

    Wendy received a BFA in printmaking and painting from Carnegie Mellon University. Her landscape paintings in oil, gouache, and watercolor capture shifting light and atmosphere infused with vibrant surprises of color. Wendy’s sense of joy and playfulness often seeps into her paintings with unusual subject matter and an elevation of common, everyday scenes that tell a story. She has  won numerous artwork awards. Website

    Congratulations, Cynthia!!  The serenity of Cynthia Inson’s intimate landscapes extends beyond the canvas. Her passion for life and the rugged beauty of the Southwest shines through in her playful, bold palettes and loose, impressionistic style. Inson studied Studio Arts and Art History in her undergrad and received her master’s in Anthropology and Archaeology from Wichita State University. An avid plein air painter, Inson draws inspiration from The Hudson River School and original California plein air painters.

    From  PAPNM Signature Member and former President, Natasha:

    "So incredibly honored to be included in Kelly Kane’s feature, The Places That Shape us, in the February/March Plein Air Magazine! She chose 5 of us representing different regions of the country. I was blown away to be asked to represent the Southwest. Definitely a bucket list honor to talk about my connection to this place I love so much. I marked through the text out of respect for the publication and to encourage you to pick up a copy of this Collectors Edition as the articles and the work filling the pages would make a great addition to your library. The others featured in this article are Clyde Aspevig, Dottie Leatherwood, Justin Vining and Lianne Whittum. Thank you Kelly from the bottom of my heart."

    I'm glad I have the magazine. I will cherish it. (KLH)
