About the Item
Planting Helpers, by Melanie Yazzie, painting, red, bird, yellow, purple, pink
As a printmaker, painter, and sculptor, my work draws upon my rich Diné (Navajo) heritage. The work I make attempts to follow the Diné (Navajo) dictum “walk in beauty” literally, creating beauty and harmony. As an artist, I work to serve as an agent of change by encouraging others to learn about social, cultural, and political phenomena shaping the contemporary lives of Native peoples in the United States and beyond. My work incorporates both personal experiences as well as the events and symbols from Diné culture. My early work focused on depictions of the harsh realities of Native peoples (i.e., racism, identity conflict, poverty, abuse, etc.) to bring to Native issues to the forefront, but more recently I have been making work with a positive twist. Due to personal health issues and trying to live a calmer lifestyle, I have been focusing on quiet and balance. I believe my work is reflecting this shift. The work is also informed and shaped by personal experiences and tries to tell many stories about things both real and imagined. Melanie Yazzie exhibits internationally and is represented by our gallery exclusively since 1994. She is a Professor and Head of Printmaking in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado.

Humming Along III, Oil on Panel, 16 x 12 Inches, is one of a series of paintings, watercolors, mosaics and prints by Lisa Houck, a very established artist from Boston with a large following devoted to her exceptional work reminiscent of Matisse and Aborigine art, with gorgeous color and a sensibility both playful and quite serious that is uniquely her own.
Houck has also executed many large public art commissions for interior and exterior sites in Boston and nationwide which are ambitious murals in oil or mosaic located in hospitals, libraries, playgrounds and other public buildings.
