Nocona Burgess<br />
I also paint animals and landscapes. The animals I paint are usually ones I’ve experienced or had<br />
the chance to observe. We live outside of Santa Fe at the base of the Jemez Mountains and there<br />
are buffalo, coyotes, ravens, elk, hawks, eagles and so on. I really started painting animals again<br />
once I moved out here. I was just reminded again about animals when I started to see them here.<br />
The landscapes are based mostly on eastern New Mexico West Texas and Oklahoma, between<br />
Santa Fe and Lawton Oklahoma. This was/is Comancheria, Quahada (a band of Comanches),<br />
country. I paint them in abstract way with heavy brushstrokes, in contrast with sharp edges.<br />
I was always told to paint what you k<strong>no</strong>w and the 3 elements are what I see and observe, the land,<br />
the people, and the animals are what inspire me to paint. I love to drive read, observe and take it<br />
all in.<br />
I really push myself in the studio to explore and experiment with techniques and texture and color.<br />
I don’t ever want to get to a point where it is a formula. I realize there is some sort of formula to<br />
it, but I don’t want every painting to be painted the same and the same palette, color scheme and<br />
brush strokes. I like to see the evolution of my own paintings over the years and the hopes of getting<br />
better and improving.<br />
