New Vision - Paintings by Frank McCulloch and Terra Cotta by Sara D'Alessandro

Nube de Lluvia
Oil on Canvas
24 x 30"

McCulloch is one of Albuquerque’s most well-known landscape artists. He recently was awarded the title “Local Treasure” by the Albuquerque Art Business Association. He describes his lush oil paintings as "landscapes of the mind," and they never fail to enchant. D'Alessandro has had a long career as sculptor. Originally from New York, she finds inspiration in the raw New Mexico landscape. Her organic clay shapes bring the outdoors inside, but they are also very comfortable in a garden setting.
