Oil and acrylic paintings on wood

January 22, 2021

Formally, I prefer to work with simple materials such as wood, house paint, oils and gouache. This helps to express the pull of historical folk arts. My obsession with color is a reference to these varying styles, which often employ powerful colors. It is also a desire to create a harmonious tension through color relationships, resulting in a perceivable visual energy.

Linda Rauch
Impressionistic Floral Fantasies and Landscapes

January 23, 2021

I am what I call an interpretive painter. I paint in acrylics and watercolors. My work falls somewhere in between fantasy and reality. I like to paint the way things make me feel when I see them. I love the New Mexico landscape and also flowers. They are both magical to me. I like to think of my work as a fairy tale that tells a story with paint.

About the Taos Arts Council

What the Arts Council Does

The Taos Arts Council was founded in 2012 with the vision to create a central hub in support of the Arts and Artists Community in Taos, Taos County and Northern New Mexico.

Towards that longstanding goal, the TAC has been actively working towards defining its positioning in relation with the other entities and initiatives currently in Taos — such as the Town of Taos, The Taos Business Consortium, Art Space, Mainstreet, Strong at Heart and similar such government or grassroots organizations.

The stated approach for the Taos Arts Council is to support all constructive dialogue and action between organizations and individuals that is mutually beneficial to all involved.

Activities and Goals Include:

Need to Work with Local Government(s)
Need for Information Sharing
Need for Public Art & Spaces
Identifying Cooperative Efforts
Coordinated Activities Between Arts Related Organizations
Acting as Public Voice for Local Arts Community
