Shine Your Light On Me

These are lyrics from a song by The Waifs, a band out of Australia. They’re a great group and I love this song. Lighthouse Man Lighthouse tall and grand standing on the cold headland shine your light across the sea for a wayward sailor girl like me Lighthouse man guide this sailor back to land […]

Rescue Dog Finn: A Love Story

Finn Update

I don’t know how many of you have had the experience of sharing an extra-special bond with one of your animals. There have been three such instances in my lifetime: my first dog, as an adult, Meghann, a rescue with a fractured back and broken leg, a feral cat a friend and I brought in […]

Lashes LaRoo: The Real Deal

Truchas Field

Many of you were intrigued by my friend from the film industry who felt unable to participate on the blog using her real name, so she chose the pseudonym, Lashes LaRoo (see previous posts Lashes LaRoo: Tales of the Film Industry, Part 1 and Part 2). But I want to assure you she is very […]

The First Stone: Jeanne Marie Laskas

A Little Mountain History

This article has been very meaningful to me over the years and I’m just realizing, now, that I have begun to live and create in this way, more fully than I’ve ever been able to do before. The First Stone by Jeanne Marie Laskas Mack, the builder of walls, is out in the front yard […]

Belief and Forgiveness

Belief And Forgiveness Slider

Holy Week, the week before Good Friday and Easter Sunday, is very meaningful here in northern New Mexico. I spoke with Isabro Ortega about it today (see previous post Isabro Ortega: Master Carver). Isabro grew up very religious, very Catholic. He says, “It’s always been a tradition, as long as I can remember, walking to […]

Marco Oviedo: Keeping Art Alive

Marco Oviedo Slider

Marco Oviedo has been making art since he was six years old. “Longer than I want to admit,” he says. He belongs to one of the few families that have been continuously, over the last 500 years, doing this same process. There is an example in a text he shares, showing a piece by his […]

Bring You Alive : David Whyte

Old Land Grant Slider

I absolutely love the poet, David Whyte. His poems have been sustenance to me in times of trouble and joyous exclamations when I celebrate. This is one of my favorites: Sweet Darkness When your eyes are tired the world is tired also. When your vision has gone, no part of the world can find you. […]

About Me

About High Road Artist IMG 9461 150x150I am Jeane George Weigel, a working artist living in the mountains of northern New Mexico, and I do not think you and I are so different.

Every single one of us longs to know what we ache for, to “follow our bliss” as Joseph Campbell famously put it. You may find yours as an artist, a writer, or a teacher. But I am convinced we all yearn to live what is in our hearts. Some of us spend a lifetime discovering what that is. Some never find it.

This blog is about a journey of self-discovery, yours and mine. I write about the experience of living an artist’s life and share musings and photos as this living experiment unfolds. It is my hope you’ll join in the conversation by writing to me about your lives and I dearly hope something, here, will inspire you.
