ABOUT THE ARTIST, YSLETA MEEK
Ysleta Beall Meek paints and designs images from nature.
Influenced by the four seasons, Ysleta considers herself a
colorist. She enjoys creating from "within" when
an image emerges from
the impressionist swirl and dance of colors on the paper or
canvas.
She likes texture in her work and uses a painting knife. She
also uses texture in collages, fibers, and quilted textiles.
