Why Does Love Matter?

dawning 2

I have come to this village to learn what it means to love. I see that clearly tonight, under the light of a full moon.

"I beg you…" – Rainer Maria Rilke

All that Glitters

This advice has been profound in my life. I’ve been growing into it over the last fifteen years as Rilke suggests. I am forever grateful. “I beg you… to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a […]

In Pursuit of Art

Weigel House

Kathy has just come to visit from Great Barrington, Massachusetts. I met her with her husband, Mike, in Anna and my gallery this past season when they bought one of my favorite paintings, Blue 2. We felt this amazing connection—all three of us. They stayed and talked for a couple of hours. I love that […]

Inspiration for New Art

First Snow

Not only did yesterday’s snowstorm create, for me, time in the studio I wasn’t finding for myself, it also offers, now, the added bonus of turning my world into a winter wonderland of inspiration. No doubt new paintings will be born from the beauty these mountains offer up to us in as many ways as […]

Good Morning, Grandfather

As I am getting to know my Pueblo Indian friends, I am becoming aware of a shift in me. I believe that when we’re ready for lessons, our teachers appear. These people are my teachers for a new body of personal work I wasn’t even aware was on the horizon. Knowing them seems to be […]

Come Paint With Me!

White German Shepherd

Today I had a permit to go shoot photos at one of the Pueblos—for a blog post no less. But the mountain had other ideas. It’s snowing out there—so much so that I’m snowed in. That means I get to PAINT! I love the way Spirit always gets her way. Clearly, I was supposed to […]

Can You Give Your Art Space?

My Neighbors

In spite of the fact I’ve very recently told you that it’s possible to fit your art into the small spaces of your life, I was starting to stress yesterday, wondering how it was all going to work, really. I got up before sunrise and jumped right into it. I was deeply inspired and excited. I […]

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.
