Your spirit will soar through visionary landscapes that open doorways into magical realms. Bearcloud Gallery has been a Sedona landmark for over a quarter of a century. This year marks a milestone for the gallery when we decided to expand and relocate to the courtyard at “The Collective” shopping Center in the beautiful Village of Oak Creek, home to Sedona’s iconic rock formations. “The Collective” is transforming itself into Sedona’s premier arts and entertainment venue located at the entry into beautiful red rock country.

Bearcloud is excited to present a new addition to his gallery “The Native Cultural Center”. This project was created to honor the ancestors who settled this land eons ago. Archeologists have speculated for decades as to the meanings of the diff erent symbols found in the pictographs and petroglyphs in the Sedona area and all over Northern Arizona. Bearcloud, along with other Native Chiefs and revered elders guide us to consider the spiritual

meanings behind the mysterious symbolism. There is a common thread found through these ancestors that facilitate a realization of expressions of spirit and balance found through the clues left from ancient times.

Each of Bearcloud’s unique paintings tells a story based on visions he feels he’s gifted through his Native spiritual traditions, daily practices and ceremonies. Bearcloud says “It can take up to year to accomplish one painting. In that year, what’s important to me is not only receiving the images from my visions, but also obtaining what’s beyond the paint”. There is a quality of light in his work that captivates people’s hearts; to really appreciate his paintings fully they really must be viewed in person allowing

for that rare heart connection to the art. His paintings speak to people on a very deep level causing visceral reactions. It is not uncommon for people to tear up while viewing his artwork. Bearcloud has an uncanny ability to engage people’s souls through his artwork, encouraging them to uncover the hidden songs of their individual spirits. He says that people have their own deeper connection to the Earth and the paintings provoke that deeper connection within each person. His artwork is beyond any typical painting; they are truly catalysts for your own spiritual evolution.

A visit to Bearcloud’s gallery will take you on a very special journey through mysterious realms that few people actually

experience and gently encourage you to explore those realms within yourself. Bearcloud’s people call him “Wacasa Wakan” which translates into “One who knows” or “Vision seeker” meaning one who sees between the veils that separate the diff erent layers of reality. As a vision seeker he explains that he is in a constant fl ow of an ever-shifting reality of visions. Many Native traditions don’t encourage and at times forbid sharing these experiences with


Village Rock Shop of Sedona is a retail business that literally rocks — in more ways than one — as a specialty shop focused on the geology and formation of rocks, crystals, gemstones, minerals, fossils, and other stones. The Village Rock Shop is the go-to place in Sedona’s Village of Oak Creek where you can fi nd collectible mineral specimens, rough material, cut slabs, and more. Michael has developed his talents as a cabochon cutter and fi ne jewelry designer. His sterling silver pieces are widely known as uncommon, hand-cut cabochons featuring Sedona Sunrise, exotic Arizona minerals, exotic agates, jasper, malachite, gem silica, dinosaur bone, and other elements.About our owner-rocker

“So many rocks, so little time”

Ever since the day he discovered an amethyst crystal during a childhood romp in a cave in Italy, Michael Silberhorn has been fascinated by the geology and formation of rocks. He prospects and mines for gemstones of exceptional color, pattern and texture and recently discovered and laid claim to a beautiful new gemstone that he named “Sedona Sunrise” exclusive to The Village Rock Shop.Finding and enhancing magnifi cent stones is

just one of Michael's passions. He creates fi ne jewelry, enjoys painting, and you can spot a few of his creations alongside the works of other local artists he features in the shop. Also, on Wednesday nights, you can fi nd Michael rocking out with other local musicians and singers during Open Mic Night at Village Rock Shop of Sedona. One must merely notice the tell-tale tattoos on Michael's leg to guess his musical infl uences. When asked about those four symbols from Led Zeppelin's fourth album, Michael muses, "It's all about the journey of life and the choices we have along the path!"

50 Joyful YearsSuzen Brackell describes herself as a “cloth artist;” a fabric

sculptress who carves, shapes, and designs garments from material that is fun, easy care, wrinkle-free and pre-shrunk to hold its form. The tops, dresses, jackets and scarves Suzen creates are a blend of chic and whimsy, casual, elegant and subtly sensual. She enhances her pieces with tiny loops of stitched thread, intentionally frayed edges, and carefully tied lengths of sculpted cloth strips to bring out their playful character. Her ‘one size fi ts most’ garments can be found in every color of the fabric palette including rare vintage fi nds. While Suzen often uses natural fi bers, she confesses, “The fabric content is not as important to me as the comfort, feel and fl ow of the fi nished garment itself.”

In celebration of her “50 Joyful Years,” Suzen is off ering a Special $50 sale on many of her normally higher priced items thru May 3rd.

those outside the tribe. In Bearcloud’s heart of hearts, he feels that these sacred visions and the artistic skill to showcase them are the sacred gifts of his life path, which come with a responsibility to uplift humanity by sharing those gifts. He is supremely humble and fi lled with gratitude, realizing at his core that these visions are a gift from the realms of spirit.

Bearcloud’s paintings embody archetypal themes that transcend time and culture. The balance between the masculine and feminine intrinsic energies encourages us to appreciate others who we may perceive as diff erent, and to strive for that balance within our own being. The theme of spirits in the earth, clouds, water and stars remind us that we are never truly alone on this earth walk and have unseen help along the way if only we would ask and pay attention. There was a time when we could hear the elements around us and we are trying to remember those old ways once again. The feeling of fl ow awakens us to the fact

that we live in a dynamic universe and whatever our present circumstances the earth keeps turning and life begins anew with each breath. In his profound artistry we are constantly reminded that we are all connected not only to each other, but also to the animal, plant, water and sky nations. We are indeed one.

A visit to Bearcloud’s gallery is truly an experience you will never forget and a must see while you are visiting Sedona. Our Facebook page will keep you posted about special events we will be hosting in the near future: Native Elders sharing wisdom, live birds and animals from a local wildlife rescue organization, and so much more. Located within the circle of The Collective

at 7000 Hwy 179 Suite C-100. Please call us at 928 282 4940 with any questions-open daily from 10 AM to 5 PM. You can also email [email protected]. If you time it right you just might have a chance to connect with Bearcloud in person and hear him share some magical stories that will weave a web of new worlds for your spirit to explore.

Now in its seventh year of business, Rowe Fine Art Gallery continues to impress with its high caliber of art, exclusive artist receptions and talked-about events. This year is no exception. In March, the gallery honored wildlife sculptor and gallery co-owner Ken Rowe, who is celebrating his 30-year sculpting career.

During these years, Ken’s sculptures have garnered numerous awards and have appeared on television and in national publications. His work has been juried into prestigious national exhibitions; he has also participated in museum shows. Even with all the recognition, Ken says he doesn’t feel like he has plateaued as an artist. “I’m still going 110 miles per hour,” says Ken. “I’ve been elated by the momentum of my career and everything that has happened. Every pivotal moment launches me into the next, and I can’t imagine that letting up.”

In addition to celebrating Ken’s sculpting anniversary, the gallery has an exciting lineup of shows and artist receptions planned throughout the year. In April, impressionistic wildlife sculptor Joshua Tobey will return to Sedona for his annual one-man show. Humor Me: Joshua Tobey’s Art with Attitude, takes place Friday, April 7, from 5 to 8 p.m. and Saturday, April 8, from 1 to 4 p.m. Joshua, who is based out of Colorado, will debut his fi rst

skunk sculpture as well as reveal his latest bobcat piece. Later in the month, Michigan-based painter Kim Diment will demonstrate her technique in the gallery and be in the spotlight for an artist’s reception. Run Wild takes place Friday, April 21, from 4 to 7 p.m. In the gallery’s adjacent courtyard, Kim will be doing a quick draw of Kashmoo, a rescued great horned owl from the nonprofi t Runnin’ W Wildlife Center in Cornville. The quick draw will take place from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Kim will be in and out of the gallery throughout the week of April 17, so pop in to see what she’s working on. (Keep an eye out for Kim painting en plein air around Sedona that week, too.)

At Rowe Fine Art Gallery, guest artists frequently demonstrate on-site, especially the fi rst Friday of every month. Ken can often be found sculpting in the gallery, too. Seasoned art collectors and novices alike will discover something new after spending time talking with artists and viewing Rowe Fine Art’s impressive collection. The gallery is located at 336 SR 179, Suite A-102 at Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village. Spring hours are Sunday – Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Thursday-Saturday, 10 a.m – 8 p.m. For more information, visit www.rowegallery.com or call 928-282-8877. Check out the website for more events.

Art is a force that dares us to look within. This is what Andrea’s art inspires us to do. Andrea’s vision, that peace on earth comes from fi nding peace within.

Barthe is a native New Yorker and poet who was awestruck by the myriad of colors and impressions the Sedona sky and landscape had to off er, transporting her to an experience beyond words. Before long, the desert’s inspirational fl ame danced its way into her heart and Spirit spilled onto the white canvas. Plein Air inspired, Patricia Barthe’s original oil paintings seek to express emotion in its purest color and boldest form.

Barthe will giving a live painting demonstration during Tlaquepaque’s “A Taste of Provence” event on April 8th, in front of Andrea Smith Gallery. Being of French decent, Barthe spent summers in France as a child and teenager, and still visits relatives

Illuminated spring greens on silver with patina by Pamela Becker

“Because I fi nd human portraiture to be the most beautiful, evocative and challenging, I gravitate toward it to solve the mystery of my abstract silver-patina base. I do not paint on photos as many have asked because the portraits look so real, but rather work from my own photos of models. I seek to capture

their essential self,” Pamela states. Working from her own photos as reference she weaves in symbolic archetypes, combining the representational with the sensory. “I want to give the viewer something the mind can recognize and feel comfortable with, so the viewer can gently go deeper into their unconscious through texture, light and color to fi nd understanding for something heretofore unknown inside themselves.”

interview, Cody has described his distinctive style. “ What is ‘Modern Impressionism’ as it pertains to my personal artistic style?

For many years I never thought much about my ‘style’ as a painter, I just tried to learn all I could and paint the best I could each day, and let others debate style. These days when asked to describe my artistic style, I say “I’m a Modern Impressionist”. There are many defi nitions of this term, here’s mine. To me it’s about the space between realism and abstraction with my own creative interpretation. It’s about introducing an abstract quality or idea into representational painting. It’s so much more than simply copying the scene. Compositional adjustments, what to enhance or subdue, is it graphic or atmospheric, colorful or tonal, what do I really want to say about the scene? Add to this the mature artists own shorthand with regard to simplifi ed, yet highly meaningful brushwork, and well, you can begin to see how many decisions must be juggled. In my case, I'm trying to go beyond what most people think of as traditional impressionism, with its 'loose' (but often under-considered) brushwork. I want a more thoughtfully-designed yet still very painterly look up close, and a natural organic look from the proper viewing distance. Once you learn to see this, you can't go back. Today when I go to a gallery or museum, I often see a painting from across the room that excites me, only to be disappointed in it when I get up close. Other times I marvel at the brushwork and how the artist took something literal, and came up with his own language for it that is uniquely his own.”

as silks, linens, cottons, rayons, and nylons. She uses brand new, right-off -the-bolt fabrics, and, re-purposed ones such as the pieces she cut from a skirt she found for $2.00 at the Good Will Store; the trim off her Mom’s jacket that now has moth holes in it, and the gorgeous silk charmeuse salvaged from a very stained, but glamorous 1930’s bed jacket she found at a fl ea market.

Joan has devised a process which involves anywhere from seven to twelve steps (depending on the piece.) It includes the laying and mitering of the silk border and foundation, the printing of certain thematic fabrics; the layering of both contemporary and vintage fabrics and fi bers; sewing, fi nishing and pressing each piece. Some of her pieces are tried & true patterns. For many, though the overall patterns and designs may appear similar, the placement and use of fabrics and fi bers will diff er so that each piece becomes a unique, one of a kind work of art to wear or display.

Be sure to stop by the gallery this month to see how Joan’s love of color, design, and whimsy are expressed in her newest creations.

An Artistic Journeyon the Edge

As a very young lad, James Ratliff , owner of James Ratliff Gallery, was interested in form, function and beauty. It’s obvious after 53 years in the gallery business, some things never change!!

One of James Ratliff Gallery’s highly respected and internationally collected artists is Cary Henrie. Originally known for his paintings which often have a weathered, rustic, old world charm, Henrie layers his canvases using additive and subtractive

methods: Sanding, varnishing, molding, cracking and removing layers of acrylic paint and fresco plaster enables Cary to create certain dimensional eff ects.

From here grew something Henrie refers to as Eco-panels which have made it possible for Henrie not only to incise the front of the prepared panel, but allows him to carve interesting shapes AS the panels. From this stage has grown the much loved

Nature Frames which are virtual art pieces in themselves and provide framework for preserving Nature’s sustainably farmed variety of butterfl ies.

On Friday, April 7 from 5-8 P.M. there will be an opening reception for Cary Henrie as he unveils his latest work of vibrantly colored avant-garde pieces painted on metal and given such names as Meta Intersect and Arc Quadratic in this show called “Textures and Tones”. There will also be NEW traditional Henrie paintings as well as the wonderful Nature Framed butterfl ies. Mr. Henrie will present a short talk around 6 P.M. The public is cordially invited.

Ratliff says, “For over 50 years I’ve expressed to clients that it’s quality and rarity which are necessary underlying qualities in determining fi ne arts’ lasting value, and the work shown in my gallery must be of the highest quality and one of a kind.

Finishing his thoughts, Ratliff says, “Interestingly, some fi nancial advisors now recommend that fi ne art become part of a complete fi nancial portfolio. But for me, watching clients discover what captivates them is still thrilling! The singular, enduring advantage of owning fi ne art is its permanence and the ability to savor that ‘magic’ each and every day.”

Celebrate Art and Creativity at Creative Gateways

Nestled under the trees in West Sedona lies artist collective and gallery Creative Gateways. Founded in 2016 by Pilisa Rainbow Lady, its working studios are open to all, and visitors are welcome to drop in at any time to meet the artists and engage with the creative process. Their intention is to create an open community where cross-pollination of ideas and spontaneous collaborations can fl ourish. The gallery space showcases the innovative and lively work that results from this very special environment, for visitors to discover, explore, and take home with them.

They have several special events and classes planned for the season beginning with their April show: “Earth Without Art is Just Eh.” It is proven that art has the power to enhance our lives. This thought provoking show invites people to explore impact of visual art on the surrounding environment through a variety of mediums; work in ceramics, glass and painting are all represented.

Enjoy sinuous work by glass artists Pilisa Rainbow Lady and Terry and Marika Israelson whose work refl ects the ambient play of light within the surrounding environment. Abstract painter Michael Colpitts and watercolorist Meg Munro each express the vibrancy of the surrounding world in their work but in a completely diff erent manner and medium. Michael’s abstract pieces have a fi ery sense of movement and energy while Meg’s luminous pieces invoke a sense of stillness. Sumati Colpitts ceramic pieces deftly capture the essence of her subjects.

The public is invited to meet the artists at the opening reception during 1st Friday in the Galleries on Friday, April 7, from 5-8pm. This intriguing exhibit runs throughout the month of April.

For a complete listing of events and classes please go to their website www.CreativeGateways.com, fi nd them on Facebook

In the heart of Sedona’s Gallery District two of the city’s most well-established galleries await visitors as the active spring season begins. Celebrating their 30th and 45th anniversaries, respectively, Lanning Gallery and Turquoise Tortoise Gallery each welcome artists to exciting new exhibitions for April. A 1st Friday artist reception opens each on April 7th, from 5-8 pm.

Lanning Gallery debuts “Rolling Hills and Rounded Earth: The Art of Slava TCH and Bob Smith with both artists making rare visits to Sedona for the exhibition’s opening. Originally from Russia with a Master of Fine Arts from Ukraine, Slava TCH had already become an accomplished artist and muralist before turning to the challenging technique of encaustic – a combination of melted beeswax and pigment. In his paintings neo-primitivism and abstract symbolism combine to express a yearning for the ideal. The places TCH depicts seem at once both mythical and sacramental and the rich luminosity of these dreamlike landscapes are unmatched.

Bob Smith has been a studio potter for over forty years. A true master of the unpredictable art of raku he is now also creating superb saggar fi red vessels. In both methods the hand of the skilled artist and the hand of pure chance share credit; while losses due to thermal shock may be high the pieces that survive these challenging processes are exceptional. With both his raku pieces, in earthy red tones that mirror our own red rocks, and the satiny fi nishes of his saggar-fi red vessels, the hallmark of Smith’s work remains his consistently dramatic surfaces.

Turquoise Tortoise Gallery opens “Stan Natchez: Symbols of Power” and the prominent Native American artist travels to Sedona for the

exhibition opening, and will off er what promises to be a fascinating and informative talk at 6:00 pm.

Translating sophisticated, thought-provoking ideas onto canvas, Natchez blends traditional Americana imagery with traditional imagery of Native Americana, showing us, with no shadow of a doubt, that you cannot have one without the other. His distinctive neo-pop style combines the two-dimensional look of traditional “ledger art” with a range of mixed media from beadwork to

bottle caps. By overlaying many of these images over actual U.S. currency the representation of ideas

grows more compellingly complex.

At Turquoise Tortoise Gallery Native American and Southwest art, including an extensive collection

of traditional and contemporary jewelry, are exhibited. Lanning Gallery off ers a wide selection of Classic and

Contemporary art in a variety of media.
