SUMMARY:A Weekend with David Frederick Riley and Nealy Riley
DESCRIPTION:Join us for A Weekend with David & Nealy Riley\, an extraordinary two-day event celebrating the dynamic artistic voices of this accomplished husband-and-wife duo.\nDavid Riley\, renowned portrait painter\, illustrator\, and gallery artist\, brings a deeply human approach to his work—blending traditional mastery of the figure with contemporary abstraction\, luminous color harmonies\, and powerful emotional narratives. His paintings explore the universal human condition\, balancing realism and expression while reflecting themes of personal and spiritual growth.\nNealy May Riley’s contemporary wildlife paintings offer a striking complement\, merging refined realism with symbolic\, ethereal design. Through her innovative use of oil and metal leaf\, Nealy captures the spiritual essence of animals\, creating visually arresting works that harmonize form\, pattern\, and meaning.

SUMMARY:Opening: New Works by BC Nowlin
DESCRIPTION:For more than two decades\, B.C. Nowlin’s work has been a defining presence at Manitou Galleries. This landmark one-man exhibition opens Friday\, June 5 from 5 to 7 pm and celebrates the enduring relationship between gallery and artist\, and the continuing evolution of one of the Southwest’s most distinctive and visionary painters. \nBorn and raised on land bordering the Sandia Pueblo Reservation\, Nowlin developed a deeply personal visual language shaped by cultural intersection\, spiritual inquiry\, and a fiercely independent path as a self-taught artist. Emerging as a pivotal voice of the “New West\,” his paintings transcend narrative\, offering meditations on journey\, identity\, and transformation. \nNowlin’s unmistakable imagery — solitary travelers\, luminous forms\, and dreamlike landscapes — invites viewers into contemplative worlds that feel both timeless and transcendent. Bold in design yet profoundly introspective\, his work reflects decades of fearless exploration and a singular artistic vision.
