Artist INC Express helps artists, of any discipline, develop the building blocks for a thriving and enduring arts practice. Led by a team of experienced, working artists, these ten-hour, hands-on workshops help artists like you address specific needs and challenges that you’ll face throughout your career.

Christie Bundy
Watercolor and Oil Paintings

Christie Bundy finds special beauty in the light and landscape of Northern New Mexico and hopes that her vision and interpretation allows viewers to experience the richness for themselves. Christie’s love of the unique light that is native to the area infuses her compositions with warmth and depth. Shadows playing on the sensuous organic shapes and curves of ancient adobes feed her imagination and fill her work.

About the Taos Arts Council

What the Arts Council Does

The Taos Arts Council was founded in 2012 with the vision to create a central hub in support of the Arts and Artists Community in Taos, Taos County and Northern New Mexico.

Towards that longstanding goal, the TAC has been actively working towards defining its positioning in relation with the other entities and initiatives currently in Taos — such as the Town of Taos, The Taos Business Consortium, Art Space, Mainstreet, Strong at Heart and similar such government or grassroots organizations.

The stated approach for the Taos Arts Council is to support all constructive dialogue and action between organizations and individuals that is mutually beneficial to all involved.

Activities and Goals Include:

  • Need to Work with Local Government(s)
  • Need for Information Sharing
  • Need for Public Art & Spaces
  • Identifying Cooperative Efforts
  • Coordinated Activities Between Arts Related Organizations
  • Acting as Public Voice for Local Arts Community

“The artist’s world is limitless. It can be found anywhere, far from where he lives or a few feet away. It is always on his doorstep.”
