High Road Artist: 200th Post, Then and Now

New Gallery Artwork

I truly can’t believe I’m writing my 200th post! As Adam said, the second 100 sure went by faster than the first. A lot has happened over the course of all these months. The blog has changed. In the beginning I was telling my story. Now I realize I’m painting a portrait of the lives […]

New Gallery’s Opening Day!

Official Opening Day

Today we celebrated. We got to the gallery, the three of us, Anna, Bill and I, and set all the lights in all the rooms. And just as Bill was finishing up some wiring, before we’d had a chance to put away the tools and the bulbs, before our OPEN sign was even up, our […]

Creating Our New Gallery Home

Old Adobe Gallery

Being a working artist up here on the High Road is different from any other place I’ve ever lived. First of all, I’m part of a very serious, diverse and close-knit artist community. There are more artists living in this tiny village than I’ve experienced at any other time in my life. We all know […]

Art Inspires Art

Fence and Clouds

I have just finished reading River of Traps–A New Mexico Mountain Life, by William deBuys, and I am becoming aware that this work has found its way into my work. I’ve been painting a couple of series for about a year and a half now—much longer than any series I’ve ever done. They are my […]

Art Opening - Nude Year 2011

There was a wonderful opening at Hand Artes Gallery here in Truchas this past Saturday (see previous post Disparate Pieces). The subject of the show was the nude and its title, “Nude Year 2011: Voices of the Body,” expressed very well the great mix of art from several local artists including Anna Karin, Terry Gates, […]

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.
