Melinda Hall

SFW&C Fiesta Featured Artist 2011
Hall, a longtime Santa Fean, continues to merge imagery and text in her whimsical paintings of dogs, cats, automobiles, and other objects.
“My style evolved in the struggle of push and pull between artist and canvas, in the space of my own private, quirky little battleground of observation, interpretation, intention, and application,” she once wrote. “What has resulted is a visual journal, a commentary on many universal subjects.”
And as she also said, “In my paintings the subject matter revolves around simple yet fundamental aspects of life, home, pets, travels, observations of everyday objects and events.”
