In honor of National Native American Day, observed in Arizona and California on the fourth Friday of September (this Friday), we are highlighting a piece by Mexican artist Humberto Limon Salazar. Known for his vivid paintings of cowboys and Indians, Salazar had a keen eye to the past, his art an embodiment of the mythos of the old west, one that still lives on to this day. This painting is just one of a collection of his paintings currently on display and available for purchase at Nuevo Santander Gallery.

New Arrival!
We've recently received four new paintings by Texas artist Edith Maskey. A full time artist for almost fifty years, Edith, along with her husband John, make watercolor paintings of colorful Mexican villages and vibrant towns, with an emphasis on architecture, street scenes, and the more traditional, slower pace of life of the people. Long time lovers of Mexico, they've been traveling to the small towns and rural areas of Mexico for their artistic inspiration for decades.

This painting of a women waiting for clients to sell her flowers and food in a Oaxacan market is a sweetly humanist artwork. This painting is part of a collection of paintings by Edith that are on display and available for sale at Nuevo Santander Gallery.

The tradition of arbol de la vida sculptures is said to originate in Spanish Colonial Mexico, when the Church commissioned local artisans to create candelabras with biblical scenes as a way to assimilate the native people to the Catholic faith.

Fast forward to the 1920s, in the town of Izucar de Matamoros, Aurelio Flores began the tradition of making tree of life ceramic sculptures. These artworks would come to represent the fine craftsmanship and unique visual style that he, and later his son Francisco, brought to the Mexican folk art tradition.

Often given to newlyweds as symbols of fertility and abundance, they are now
highly collectible pieces in the overall tradition of Mexican ceramic art. This piece, adorned with twenty one skeleton musicians, with birds and flowers throughout, is a rare and exceptional representation of this timeless folk art tradition. And it is only available at Nuevo Santander Gallery.

"Blooming Lotus Flower" by Fany Mares, acrylic on canvas, 24" x 20".
Returning to one of the most symbolic of flowering plants, the lotus flower, Fany adds whimsy and movement to the floating beauty.

Though its symbolism varies depending on the culture and religions, it most commonly represents purity, rebirth, and overcoming adversity. Given that it blooms in often murky, swampy water, the lotus flower proves that beauty is possible in the darkest of places.

"Flamingoessence" 36" x 24", acrylic on canvas
by Lisa Denise Saenz

With "Flamingoessence", McAllen based artist Lisa Saenz gives us an explosion of color and pattern within the flamingo form. Painted in 2009, Lisa states this was the first painting done in what is her now signature visual style. Teasing out the multitude of shapes, colors, and patterns she incorporates is what makes "Flamingoessence" such a joy to perceive. This is one of a collection of equally striking paintings by the artist that is currently on display and available for purchase.

Our hours are Monday thru Friday, 10:00 am to 5:00 pm and Saturdays by appointment.
