​​​​

APRIL 2025

Reception: April 4, 4-7pm

The Colorful New West:  Traditional and Contemporary - Mountain Trails Gallery Sedona is delighted to spotlight artists who see space, shape, and form in a variety of ways.  There are some who give space and planes of color a more dominant role while others give prominence to the nuance in each detail of form and that makes their aesthetic choices come alive.  And, there are artists who strike a balance as they move back and forth to bring harmony and unity to both styles of brushwork as well as sculpting techniques.  Bringing a focus to color is a prominent part of the story in many of the paintings and sculptures that celebrate both style and essence in the artwork from the colorful New West.

Get Back on and Ride:  The Spirit of the Cowgirl – Mountain Trails Gallery Sedona is proud to represent a balance in their roster of artists as the gallery continues to showcase the highly spirited ones who draw collectors to this destination gallery located in the heart of the city.  The common theme expressed by all the women in speaking about their complex and often arduous journey to find their voice in art is, when they seemingly fail, fall or falter, to always “get back on and ride.”  The cowgirl spirit is exemplified in this exhibition of painting sculpture, and mixed media fine art.
