At Elena Gallegos

Plein air painting done at the Elena Gallegos Open Space in Albuquerque, NM.  
This painting is a part of our 45th Anniversary Show. 

Since retiring in 2005, Diane has dedicated herself to painting full-time, shifting her focus to oil painting to capture the expressive brushwork that defines her style. A former president of the Rio Grande Art Association (now a lifetime member) and an active member of the Plein Air Painters of New Mexico, she paints daily and frequently participates in prestigious juried shows such as Masterworks and Encantada. Her ultimate goal remains constant: to translate the inherent beauty of the world into the rich, tactile language of oils.
