Convergence Gallery is pleased to present Love Letters from the Earth, a stunning new body of work from Diana Stetson. This past Spring, Diana began noticing how many things in nature are shaped like hearts. They struck her as poetic messages from nature, and these paintings are based on this inspiration. They are oil paintings, rendered on panels covered with a metaphorical mixture of antique lettering that she collected in France and Japan, stamps, cancelation marks, and plaster. Leaf, butterfly, shell, stone -- are painted in painstaking detail to honor the message to, and from, the earth.

We also present new paintings from Diana's ongoing mixed media series of beguiling birds perched in trees.

Stetson's art resides in thousands of collections worldwide, including the personal collections of various luminaries from the political, business, arts, and entertainment communities. Numerous museums have exhibited Stetson's work, including the Museum of Fine Art in Santa Fe and the Albuquerque Museum in Albuquerque. This brilliant art is included in the permanent collections of the National Art Museum in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, and the Portland Art Museum in Portland, Oregon, among others.

A native of New York, Stetson currently makes her home in Albuquerque.
