"MAYORDOMO" - Click here to visit The High Road Catalogue

"MAYORDOMO" - Now available as a Studio Edition Print.
(Visit the High Road Print Catalogue to order)

A Mayordomo is the official elected to maintain the irrigation system known as the Acequia Madre -- centuries old "Mother Ditches" that bring water from the mountains to the villages here in northern New Mexico. He oversees the spring cleaning of the ditches (as seen in the painting) and manages control of the water to ranches and fields. The original painting "Mayordomo" was completed as an homage to my first Truchas friend, the local Mayordomo, Cosme Romero. I was living at the ranch on Llano Quemado on the outskirts of Truchas. One day Cosme brought his wife, Carmelita, and his daughter, Susie, to welcome me to the community. He was a kind and gracious man with a wonderful sense of humor.

"SUNSET DREAMING" - NEW Original Oil Painting

"SUNSET DREAMING"
NEW 14"x11" Original Oil Painting on Linen
Framed in Gold with Linen Liner


This is the winter view from my kitchen window -- looking toward the Pecos Wilderness -- at sunset, after a snowstorm. This window never disappoints and never fails to surprise -- Ah, the wonders I have seen! Whooping Cranes, wild snowstorms, forest fires, raging thunderstorms, little grey rabbits, hordes of magpies and the other day a happy trio of wild geese. Have been looking through this window for almost 20 years while doing the dishes, and I don't think any photo or painting can ever do it justice -- it's just a place that one grows to love. With this canvas my May exhibit in Santa Fe is completed. Planning to get dressed in my best blue jeans and take a truck ride into the big city with all my new work on Wednesday. Wish me luck!

Best regards, Donna
