Guy Cross: What We Do For Love

November 21, 2025 by Jeane George Weigel

Guy started “THE Magazine” because he had a mother who took him around to all the galleries and museums in New York City when he was growing up and he came to appreciate art and artists. He wanted to create a place where they would be objectively reviewed…

Isabro Ventura “Charro” Ortega, at Home in the Clouds

November 20, 2025 by Jeane George Weigel

Isabro seemed to embody the spirit of what used to be, bearing history and the generations, in his bones. He was of this place. He was ancient and he was a child. A force of nature.

Lorey Sebastian: Legendary Film Photographer Finds Truchas, Part 1

Lashes LaRoo

It’s a very difficult job: long hours, and you have to meet the demands of a lot of people—studios, producers, directors, and actors. You have to be present and yet remain invisible. They don’t want to know you’re there taking photographs.

truchas, new mexico life

Spirit Horse Gallery, Chimayo,NM

December 21, 2019 by Jeane George Weigel

So when I say this work she does was handed down through the generations, she didn’t have a mother or a grandmother, a father, teaching her these traditions. They were in her. In her blood. She carries within her the antiquity of a people she never knew as her own.

Dennis Hopper in Taos

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.

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.
