Morris, Iva

Painter and Pastel Artist, Iva Morris lives and works in the small farming town of Las Nutrias, New Mexico. Her work can be found in Public, Private, and Museum Collections throughout the US.
Ms. Morris is an Art Teacher, providing workshops in pastel and oil painting. She participated in the Artist in Residence Program, painting murals with children around the State of New Mexico.
Morris has been making art for most of her life, showing locally and nationally, winning awards for her prints, pastels and oil paintings.  She is a member of the Pastel Society of America and the Pastel Society of New Mexico. Her work can be found at Studio 107-B in Taos, NM and at Weems Fine Art in Albuquerque, NM.
A comment made by painter Andrew Wyeth pretty much sums up my approach to art:
“Art is nothing more than the people that you love and the place where you live.”
