Morning Light, Truchas, NM

 Truchas, New Mexico is proving to be a haven for artists.  The lights and color are beyond imagining.  My students are surpassing themselves!  The two pastels are demos from different times of day.  The portrait was inspired by seeing Nicolai Fechin's work in Taos...He is amazing.  My very humble effort...a sister of one of my students kindly modeled for me.
