Some artists leave us with songs. Some leave us with memories. And a rare few leave something behind that becomes a part of who we are.

Prince was one of those rare artists for me.

He was a musician, songwriter, performer, poet, visionary, and an artist who never seemed afraid to be completely himself. His music could make you dance, break your heart, challenge you, or simply make you stop and listen.

Iโ€™m a drummer, and Prince has always been my favorite solo artist and one of the greatest musical influences on me. His creativity, musicianship, originality, and ability to cross genres made him someone I admired long before I ever thought about capturing musicians through my art.

When I started making images of musicians, this was one of the first. I created this portrait with a single continuous line, capturing the essence of Prince in a way that still feels unmistakably him.

Prince may be gone, but his music, his spirit, and his influence continue to live on for me.

There are evenings in Arizona when the sky seems to stop you in your tracks.

The sun begins to disappear behind the desert, and suddenly the sky is glowing with pinks, oranges, purples and blues-colors so vivid they almost donโ€™t seem real. The Saguaros become dark silhouettes against all that brilliant color, standing quietly as they have for generations.

๐‘บ๐’Œ๐’š ๐‘ช๐’‚๐’๐’…๐’š was inspired by one of those unforgettable moments. I wanted to capture not just the colors of an Arizona sunset, but the feeling of standing beneath it when everything becomes still for just a moment and you realize how extraordinary the ordinary can be.

Come visit Nancy's wall of beautiful and bright paintings onsite in the gallery.

Iโ€™ve always been drawn to the late Victorian and early Art Nouveau periods, an era when larger statement jewelry was both bold and effortlessly elegant.

Our family visit to Yellowstone National Park was briefly interrupted by the decision of a bison herd to cross the road right in front of us. I had never seen animals so evidently powerful, and so earthy, with their fur matted here and there. And then I noticed that one of them had a tongue sticking out, and it was blue black!

I badly wanted to take a photo, but their proximity and power and wildness, with those tiny eyes and nonchalant stroll across the road scared me. Then I remembered that our rental SUV had a sunroof. All I had to do was stand on the center console with the sunroof open to grab as many photos as I wanted.

This painting derived from one of those photos on that eventful day. I decided against a natural background of grass and light and instead painted a soft, almost-cotton candy pink to highlight the elemental rawness and power of these animals against the soft artificiality of modern life.

Marie has a wall full of beautiful paintings at Gold Canyon Art Gallery.

This came to me one evening while listening to a guitar player at a local bar near Gold Canyon. I spotted a raven on the fence next to the outdoor tables and sketched this idea out on a napkin. I gave him a weathered hat and club badge, to give him a sense of belonging to the community like the guitar player I was listening to, but I didnโ€™t want him to be an actual person.

To me, ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—น represents a whimsical portrayal of an imaginary character with a look in his eyes that suggests he has seen it all, but his wisdom keeps him from opening it up for discussion.

"My inspiration as an artist grew directly from ๐‘ป๐’‰๐’† ๐‘พ๐’Š๐’๐’… ๐‘บ๐’๐’–๐’. I first painted this piece nearly 30 years ago in oils, and I have now refined it in acrylics. It served as the foundational centerpiece of a broader collection titled ๐‘บ๐’๐’–๐’ ๐‘บ๐’Š๐’”๐’•๐’†๐’“๐’”, which then grew into ๐‘ป๐’‰๐’† ๐‘ด๐’‚๐’๐’š ๐‘ด๐’๐’๐’…๐’” ๐’๐’‡ ๐’•๐’‰๐’† ๐‘จ๐’–๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’๐’•๐’Š๐’„ ๐‘พ๐’๐’Ž๐’‚๐’, alongside my ๐‘พ๐’Š๐’๐’… ๐‘ช๐’๐’˜๐’ˆ๐’Š๐’“๐’๐’” series.

This particular piece explores ๐˜‚๐—ป๐˜๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ, ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐˜€๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ป๐˜๐˜†, ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ด๐˜๐—ต. My inspiration for this work is deeply personal, rooted in the creative persistence I learned from my fatherโ€”a B-17 pilot who kept an illustrated journal wrapped in his flight jacket while incarcerated at Stalag 17 for two years during World War II. His dedication taught me that ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ ๐˜๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—น ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ณ-๐—ฒ๐˜…๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป, healing our traumas along the way.

What began with ๐‘ป๐’‰๐’† ๐‘พ๐’Š๐’๐’… ๐‘บ๐’๐’–๐’ expanded into a full collection capturing the multifaceted spirit of womanhood. From quiet reflections in nature and joyful surrender to bold defiance, fiery playfulness, and grounded peace, each painting explores a different mood of the authentic feminine experience. Together, they represent ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—น๐˜† ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒโ€™๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ป ๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ต across all its diverse forms.
