Welcome to DONNER RANCH, TAOS,NEW MEXICO...
Description
THE OPPORTUNITY to attend a painting workshop surfaced last spring, when I was visiting by phone with Mark Donner of the Fechin Art Workshops. He called to see if we could include some workshop info in this column and suggested I schedule a week on the Donner Ranch, just north of Taos, N.M., to paint.
A landscape class sounded great, but I wasn't sure how the experience would be of value to our readers. But I concluded: Western paintings require western settings, so I packed for Taos.
The Donner Ranch is located just 18 miles north of Taos, 8000 feet up the slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains overlooking 100 miles of the Rio Grande Valley. The atmosphere is laid-back in a rustic and secluded setting, offering a broad range of vegetation, trees, and, of coarse, good color.
