Nina Baldwin and her husband, Dave, have called New Mexico home for more than thirty years.  Active members of their community, they raised their four children there. 

               They live high on the mesa overlooking the valley of the Rio Grande.  Nina paints the Southwest landscape in the beautiful colors she sees every morning from her back porch.  The big skies and the mountains feed her soul and are the inspiration for her work.  Her paintings from her “Women Gathering” series, amber series and landscapes, are contemporary expressions of her love for the land, the history and the people of New Mexico.

             “There is an energy about the desert…it touches my spirit…it’s a part of me…this is my home…it’s where I belong…it’s what I do…I use color, texture and pattern to convey the breadth and emotion of a moment in time…recording those things that touch my heart and make the spirit sing.”

               Nina is currently represented by Galeria de Corrales in Corrales, NM, as well as KISS Cafe in Old Town, Albq, NM.    Her painting, “Rio Grande Gorge”, will be featured in the soon-to-be published premier textbook, “Color and How to Use It”, in 2012 by Pearson Prentiss Hall.  Nina’s artwork was recently accepted into NEW MEXICO CREATES!  Her solo show, “Impressions”, will take place at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Rio Rancho, NM.
