Piedra, Papel, Lienzo & Tijeras: Contemporary Spanish Artists II

Laura Cobb is an award winning New Mexico painter and clinical social worker. Her large acrylic and mixed media paintings on wood push deep into psychological territory blending creativity, passion and emotion with form, line and color. Her painting is profoundly informed by the five years she lived in a developing country, the tropical rainforest island of Pohnpei, Micronesia. Here Laura painted with rainwater collected from a self installed water catchment system. Recently Laura has lived and worked abroad in Germany and traveled throughout Europe studying both modern and classical art. Laura has shown her provocative paintings at the Albuquerque Museum, the Isla Center for the Arts in Mangialo, Guam and with many private galleries in New Mexico and the Pacific.

The ArtHaus66 Gallery Holiday Auction was held concurrently with the opening for the show titled Piedra, Papel, Lienzo y Tijeras: Spanish Contemporary Artists II. The evening took place without a glitch and we were delighted at the many wonderful comments that we received both for the items in the auction and the pieces that were part of the show…All the auction items were priced at a very affordable $15 starting bid and some of our guests were very lucky to take home many beautiful gifts for this holiday season…

We’d like to extend our thanks to Andres Delgado, A Spanish painter from Tenerife who was in attendance during the opening. His gorgeous canvases of abstract landscapes will continue to be available at the gallery through March…Don’t miss the opportunity of visiting ArtHaus66 Gallery to view his work…

Many thanks to Laura Cobb whose kindness and generosity made this show fabulous. Her abstract work is as unique as it is evocative. In a time of uncertainty and dread such as the one we live in, it is my firm believe that Laura’s art affords us an oasis in which to find refuge. Gazing at her paintings is letting yourself be submerged in warm waters. It is blocking the deafening noise of the outside world. Everyone should be able to experience the soothing power of her work right in their homes…It allows you to pause and exhale…Do visit our gallery in the coming weeks to experience her artwork for yourself…

In the meantime, ArtHaus66 Gallery would like to wish everyone peace and happiness for years to come…

Happy Holidays!
