And we’re staying busy! Cats appear to be the theme recently: we’ve done a number of cats this month, from lifesize mountain lions to miniature lynxes that could fit on your desk. Stay tuned for more, as we’ve been able to sneak a preview of some bobcat kittens being sculpted by artist Star York and they’re pretty cute.
While there is no Indian Market or Balloon Fiesta this year to draw in tourists and art collectors, artists have been getting creative in getting their work out there. Some are delving more heavily into online sales, promotions, and even virtual gallery shows. Others are trying a different approach, spending more time doing live (masked, socially distanced) painting and sculpture in the galleries that represent them in order to draw in the people that are here and looking to see some of Santa Fe’s finest artwork.
Whatever their strategy, artists have been very resilient in a challenging economy, and we’re glad to keep helping them put out work!
