Marianne Williamson – Our Deepest Fear

Being Human

This statement is often attributed to Nelson Mandela, which I’ve always thought was pretty funny because I just could never picture him using the word “fabulous”. But it is a truly wonderful quote by Marianne Williamson and I CAN see her using it: Our deepest fear Is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear […]

Beginning to Paint (Again)

Night Skye

OK, so the actual day to begin to paint for the season has arrived. I’m going to take notes of each step, and photos, as I take the plunge, but first there was one thing I had to do before getting here: Step 1 Go through all my materials to see what I have and […]

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays

I wanted to share a bit of New Mexico’s traditional beauty with you and I figured there was no better way than by paying a visit to my three favorite spots in Chimayo.

Christmas In Taos

Christmas in Taos

My friends Nancy Ortenstone and Pierre Delattre just moved into a new gallery space in Taos (Ortenstone Delattre Fine Art, 115 Bent Street, 575.737.0799), and had their grand opening recently, which I attended.

The Wisdom of Mary Oliver: Part 2

The Judgement of Others

Here is another poem by Mary Oliver that I absolutely love. The first sentence, alone, has sustained me in times of trouble: Wild Geese You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft […]

What Is Art?

Re-Birthday

What is art? This question was put to me recently with the suggestion that, in addition to answering it myself, I ask those of you reading this blog to give me your thoughts. I would love to hear from you (if you go to the “contact” tab, you’ll find a form you can use or […]

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.
